Draft Message
Hi Dan,
I'm Thomas, co-founder of DaisyAI. We're building AI tools for utilization review and prior authorization.
We're specifically interested in serving regional health plans like BCBS ND. I'd love to understand how you're thinking about AI and automation for clinical operations. What challenges are you facing? Where would technology help most?
Would you be open to a brief conversation?
