Matt Hollingsworth is the CEO and co-founder of Carta Healthcare. His passion for improving patient care developed while helping his mother, a five-time cancer survivor, navigate the U.S. healthcare system and communicate her conditions to providers.
Carta has built and deployed AI-powered/data-driven technology that can replicate a substantial portion of what nurses are doing when they are filling out clinical documentation. These solutions drive cost savings, affordability, and operational improvements to the massive $10 billion services industry problem.
Matt holds an MBA from Stanford University, where he worked in the Systems Utilization Research for Stanford Medicine (SURF Stanford Medicine) lab, researching methods for using information technology to reduce equipment waste and improve patient care. It was through his work at Stanford that he and colleagues founded Carta Healthcare. Before receiving his MBA and founding Carta Healthcare, he was a researcher at CERN (Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire) and a member of the team that discovered the Higgs boson, an important discovery in particle physics. Matt received bachelor’s and master’s degrees in physics from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
While comprehensive travel health records for those using U.S. health systems are not available today, advances in technology and the legal environment are opening the necessary doors.
