In Conversation: Sufian Chowdhury
Co-Founder & CEO, Kinetik - on fraud patterns in non-emergency medical transportation
The healthcare technology conversation this year keeps returning to the themes raised by Sufian Chowdhury, Co-Founder & CEO, Kinetik.

The bigger picture
The capital context matters here. US digital health raised $7.4 billion in H1 2026 with 45% of it concentrated in $100M+ megadeals, and 115 acquisitions made it the busiest M&A run since 2021 (our analysis). In a market this concentrated, the strategies described in this conversation - defensible data, measurable outcomes, disciplined growth - are precisely what separates the funded from the folded.
It is the kind of discussion that separates durable strategy from conference-stage talking points. At Kinetik, that thinking translates into daily decisions about where technology genuinely earns its place in care delivery, and where discipline matters more than novelty.
The HTC take
Set against the sector's $7.4 billion funding half-year and accelerating policy agenda, perspectives like this one are the practical map the headlines don't provide.
