S1E7 - Building a Digital Fabric in Healthcare | HealthTech2Care Podcast with Bert Fernandez
HealthTech2Care Podcast featuring Aaron Zak and Dr. Alex Grzeska, Co-Founders of RSSP Industries

🎙 In this full-length episode, Aaron and Alex dive into the vision behind RSSP Industries' "digital fabric"—a cyber-physical system that weaves real-time patient data, transport networks, clinical workflows, and predictive analytics into one seamless, patient-centric platform. From their EMS roots to building a neural-network-inspired ontology, they share how this model bridges gaps in information flow, reduces critical delays in care (think "time to balloon" in heart attacks), and even extends beyond healthcare into industries like oil & gas.
⏱️ Timestamps:
00:00 Intro
00:48 How did you two meet and what inspired the founding of RRSP Industries?
04:49 What gap between innovation and clinical practice pushed you to build RRSP?
07:56 What is a cyber physical system, and how does it help manage healthcare networks around the patient?
14:36 What is a digital fabric, and how does it connect system-level data to the patient?
17:21 Can you give a real-world example of how this digital fabric works in care coordination?
23:00 From a physician's perspective, what's the value of having this patient data at the point of care?
27:10 What areas have you started investing in with your cyber physical system?
31:10 How can someone engage with you or start prototyping a cyber physical system?
🔑 Highlights:
- Bridging pre-hospital EMS and in-hospital workflows through one interconnected network
- How a "digital twin" app on a patient's phone feeds only the data physicians need, when they need it
- Leveraging predictive models to allocate EMS crews, supplies, and rehab resources in real time
- Designing cyber-physical systems that enhance healthcare resilience—and scale to other industries
- RSSP's "operating system" approach: integrating third-party wearables, AI tools, and clinical platforms
