Derrick Miles is the founder of CourMed, a healthcare solutions company offering enterprise software and innovative concierge delivery of healthcare products and services. The company started as a crowdsourced delivery platform like Uber/Grubhub for health delivery.
Before that, Miles was a healthcare executive for over 15 years at academic medical centers. At the age of 31, he became the youngest CEO of a specialty hospital. However, due to a reduction in force, he decided to become an entrepreneur.
His decision to also venture into entrepreneurship was also due to the fact that innovation was not working in the healthcare system. It was those failed attempts to innovate the healthcare system that fueled his desire to start his own business outside the healthcare system.
“As a former healthcare executive, I had the opportunity to experience concierge medicine at its finest and am certain that more people would enjoy the benefits of it. The lion’s share of our customers today are 50+ years of age and affluent,” Miles told Techbullion.
