Fixing Women’s Health Starts Here: Mapping the System Failures That Hold Us Back

In women’s health, I hear it all the time:

“We need more investment in women’s health.”
“We need more research dollars.”
“We need more funding, more innovation, more attention.”

And I agree.

But what we don’t hear enough is this:

“We need to fix the system itself.”

Because no amount of innovation will stick — no amount of VC funding, clinical research, or digital health tools will change outcomes — if the system they're built into is broken.

So Last Week I asked: Where is the system broken?

On Friday, I posted a question on LinkedIn:

Where is the women’s health system failing us — before, during, and after care?

Over 50+ clinicians, founders, payers, and patients responded. Their answers were raw, unfiltered, and consistent. And what emerged wasn’t just a list of pain points — it was the beginning of a systemic diagnosis.

Here are just a few examples:

🟣 Pre-Care Failures: A System Not Designed for Women’s Realities

  • We only have ~34 years of meaningful, dedicated women’s health research — and very few studies include naturally cycling women, despite hormones impacting everything from drug metabolism to mental health.

  • Menopause training in med school averages just 4 hours total — and many clinicians graduate without ever seeing a patient in perimenopause.

  • Low reimbursement for preventive services makes it financially unsustainable to provide extended counseling, nutrition guidance, or proactive screenings — especially in Medicaid-heavy populations.

  • In some states, sex education is not legally required to be medically accurate. This leaves women unequipped to understand their own bodies — let alone advocate for appropriate care..

🟡 Care Delivery Failures: Misdiagnosed, Misunderstood, and Siloed

  • Many OB/GYNs are forced to manage 5 complex patients per hour — resulting in rushed appointments, misdiagnosis, and near-total absence of whole-person care.

  • A woman presenting with fatigue, pain, and brain fog may be prescribed an SSRI, when what she actually needs is a diagnostic workup for endometriosis or thyroid dysfunction.

  • Postpartum women are told they’re “healed” at 6 weeks, but no one checks on their pelvic floor, mental health, or return to sexual function — leading to avoidable long-term complications.

  • Even in academic hospitals, mental health providers, pelvic floor therapists, OBs, PCPs, and specialists often use completely separate EHRs, forcing women to become their own care coordinators.

🔵 Post-Care Failures: No Metrics, No Handoffs, No Accountability

  • Quality metrics like HEDIS don’t track postpartum mental health, return to work, breastfeeding complications, or chronic pain outcomes — despite their long-term impact.

  • Many women face weeks or months between referrals — with no warm handoffs, no check-ins, and no plan to monitor unresolved symptoms.

  • Patients often discover that critical tests or diagnoses (e.g., abnormal mammograms, failed gestational diabetes tests) were never followed up on — until it’s too late.

  • There is no national infrastructure to capture and respond to patient-reported outcomes or close the loop between care and policy.

Why We’re Building a System Failures Report

As far as I know, no one has mapped this comprehensively.
No national organization has said: “Here’s where the system fails — and here’s what we need to fix first.”

If someone has, I want to read it. I want to work with them. I want to fix this together.

Until then — I’m going to build it. With you.

We’re turning this work into a Women’s Health System Failures Report, releasing this Fall. And with it, a 2-year Reform Roadmap to guide action across policy, care delivery, innovation, and reimbursement. I want to partner with consultants, systems, data companies and more to comprehensively map this out.

Let’s get it all on paper. Then map to systemic root causes and start there.

I can’t do this without you.

Here’s How You Can Get Involved:

1. Submit Your Perspective

What have you seen — as a clinician, patient, innovator, or advocate?

Comment on this LinkedIn post → (Also, read the comments - some really smart stuff!)

Or just reply to this email

2. Join The Conversation

Mapping the Broken System: What We’ve Heard — and What’s Next

Live Community Conversation: Friday August 1, 2:30 EST
We’ll walk through the early patterns from the crowd-sourced responses, unpack systemic failures across pre-care, care, and post-care, and invite attendees to help shape what comes next.

Attendees will also receive an invitation to join us in stealth as we prepare to launch something that addresses these system failures head-on.

We can’t fix what we don’t fully see.
Let’s map it — and rebuild it — together.

Why Understanding the System Matters

We can’t fix what we don’t fully understand.

That’s why mapping systemic failure in women’s health isn’t just about collecting stories — it’s about understanding how the system actually works: how reimbursement shapes care, how policy decisions ripple across patient outcomes, how innovation struggles to scale in a fragmented infrastructure.

If you want to be part of fixing the system, you need to know how it operates today. Here are a few ways to do that:

Join us for The Business of Women’s Health 101

Free Webinar | Friday July 25, 3pm EST and Wednesday July 30, 12:30 EST
This session breaks down the economic and structural forces shaping women’s health today — from RVUs and CMS incentives to the politics of innovation. It’s the perfect primer to understand the system behind the symptoms. We’re hosting two sessions over the next two weeks:

If you’re ready to go deeper — and want to drive real change in how women’s health is funded, delivered, and governed — this 6-week program is for you.
You’ll join a cohort of mission-driven leaders building the future of care.

Because knowing how the system works isn’t just helpful —
It’s how we change it.

Term of the Week: RVU (Relative Value Unit)

We’re all about education here—so each week, we’re breaking down one key term you should know to navigate the world of women’s health with confidence and clarity.

Last week we learned about RUC Committee, run by the AMA, and how they directly influence how providers are paid.

This week we’re taking this a step further to understand how each procedure is assigned an RVU, or Relative Value Unit.

Registration is now open for the August Cohort of the Women’s Health Mini-MBA

So far over 200+ industry leaders have learned alongside a curated group of operators, investors, clinicians, and strategists building the future of women’s health from the inside out. Our next cohort starts August 5th and spots are limited to 40 people.
