Gil and Jess are back, this time with guest Ankit Gupta, Founder and CEO of Bicycle Health, to discuss how virtual care can make an impact in solving the opioid crisis. Ankit shares the incredible story of Bicycle's humble beginnings, and how he brought it from a brick and mortar community clinic in Redwood, CA to a platform serving over 20,000 patients in 32 states and counting. He also digs into some of the challenges along the way, including regulatory limitations, continued stigma around opioid use, and health plan integration. There's no question Bicycle is one to continue to follow as they pave the way in approaching opioid use disorder differently.
