Cardiology design partners for a device data program

Device telemetry claims are only worth holding if practicing cardiologists will tell us what the data has to do in clinic. We want three practicing physicians who have already fought with device data and lost.

The Native Alpha we are looking for

Clinicians who can describe the failure of a data flow precisely enough that it becomes a claim.

What qualifies someone

  • Practicing, not purely academic
  • Has published or spoken about remote monitoring workload
  • Willing to review claim language in plain English

What rules someone out

  • Paid advisory relationships with a device manufacturer in the same category
  • No hands on time with the monitoring queue

Signals we watch for

  • Writing about alert burden and remote monitoring staffing
  • Society committee work on remote monitoring standards
  • Case reports involving data reconciliation failures

What it has taught us

  • Physicians who complain publicly about alert burden are the best possible reviewers of claim language, because they already know the failure mode by heart.

How far this search has run

These figures and the candidate packet are illustrative: the shape of a hunt at this stage, not counts from a search we are running today.

What a candidate packet looks like

This is the written answer you would get for each candidate: why they surfaced, what backs it, what we do not know, and what to do next. The person shown is a composite, not a real individual.

Illustrative candidate: an electrophysiologist

Electrophysiologist, community cardiology group

Status. Surfaced

Surfaced for. Cardiology design partners for a device data program

Why surfaced. Wrote a short piece describing how remote monitoring alerts consumed a full nursing role without changing an outcome, and proposed a triage rule.

Current signals

  • Society committee service on remote monitoring
  • Public writing on alert triage
  • No visible manufacturer advisory relationships

Why it matters. A claim written without a clinician who works the queue tends to cover the wrong step.

Native Alpha. Describes data problems in terms of who has to act on them, which converts directly into claim scope.

Evidence

  • Published the alert triage argument (Professional publication)
  • Committee service listed publicly (Society roster)

Known relationship. None known.

Unknowns

  • Institutional rules on outside review work
  • Whether the triage rule was ever implemented

Next. Ask for one hour of paid review on two claim summaries, in plain English.
