Um I I think globally clinicians have been very slow to recommend patient-facing digital products.
And are rightfully um
uh uh careful.
Okay.
So they don't have good understanding of the products.
Um one of the big problems that we that you have uh every every health system has the same two problems, right?
Not enough money, not enough healthcare professionals.
Um these people are overworked.
They have 10 minutes with you, 15 minutes if they're lucky.
They don't have time to educate themselves on the different different products, what's good, what's bad.
et cetera.
So they tend to stay away from them.
It's easier to prescribe a pill than it is to prescribe a lifestyle change and and monitor it.
And and and to some extent for them to do that, they need to be able to monitor what's going on anyway with that with that product.
So we d don't see a lot of that happening.
And the interesting experience I picked up from other people.
So for instance, Heather Cook, who we brought in to run Ripple, um, a very well known person in the in the UK and European health tech scene, um, she's had senior positions at places like Big Health and sold Sleepy O into the Scott Scottish government, but she's also worked with a couple of well known small wealth niche providers that have really struggled to scale.
She's had this problem that even you know, you sell into a system where they want to drive through the healthcare professionals and drive the uptake, it's very difficult to engage um
those people in that.
So there has to be a way.
