What 2 Billion Data Points Can Tell Us: James Mault on Smarter Care


Listen Later

What happens when a heart surgeon sees too many patients discharged too soon, with no clear way to monitor their recovery? For Dr. James Mault, MD, it sparked a 25-year journey to reshape the future of healthcare. From operating rooms in Denver to boardrooms at Microsoft and Qualcomm, James’s mission has remained the same: bridge the gap between hospital care and home through continuous, remote patient monitoring.

Today, as Founder and Executive Chairman of BioIntelliSense, James is pioneering wearable technology that tracks vital signs in real-time, empowering clinicians and families to catch warning signs early, before they become emergencies. With over 80 patents, multiple startup exits, and leadership roles at major tech companies, his career blends deep clinical expertise with bold innovation.

James shares his remarkable path from aspiring astronaut to serial healthcare entrepreneur. We explore the origin of his passion, the turning points that shaped his career, and how his technology is already transforming care for hundreds of thousands of patients across the globe.

You’ll hear how James is scaling clinical insights through data, simplicity, and purpose, revealing what 2 billion data points can teach us about smarter, more human-centered care. Whether you're a founder, clinician, or caregiver, this episode offers a powerful look at how one surgeon’s mission is changing the way the world heals.
