Healthcare CTO on AI agents for insurer enrollment: demos are easy, production is brutal
alex_verem · x · 2026-10-30

No single task is hard—there are just thousands of slightly different insurer/specialty/provider combinations, and a demo that works for one payer fails in production. He frames it as a top-line issue, not compliance, with open questions on framework choice and sequencing.
