AI Health Opportunity Sprint

Before you fund the AI, find the right problem.

A 2–3 week decision sprint for health institutions that need to determine where AI can create meaningful value, what operating model would make it work, and what should happen next.

Duration
2–3 weeks
Standard fixed fee
US $12,500

The decision this Sprint is designed to answer.

Given the health outcome we are responsible for, where — if anywhere — can AI materially improve the system, and what is the smallest credible next investment?

Who this is for.

  • A public-health leader with an AI mandate but no defensible first use case.
  • A health system or payer deciding where AI can improve access, prevention, coordination, or population health.
  • A funder deciding which AI-enabled health opportunities deserve investment.
  • An NGO or implementation organization with a health workflow that AI may materially improve.
  • An institutional innovator trying to move from experimentation to an operating model.

This is designed for institutions with a real health problem or mandate. It is not designed for generic AI education, personal health advice, or software shopping.

What happens during the Sprint.

  1. Week 1 — Frame and map

    Define the outcome, population, pathway, actors, data, constraints, and failure points.

  2. Week 2 — Explore and pressure-test

    Identify candidate AI interventions and test them against value, feasibility, safety, workflow fit, adoption, and institutional reality.

  3. Week 3 — Decide and specify

    Rank the opportunities, define the recommended operating model, specify the smallest credible experiment, and produce the Executive Decision Dossier.

This is a typical sequence. Some Sprints complete in two weeks.

What you receive.

Output 1

AI Opportunity Map

A ranked set of candidate AI applications based on health value, feasibility, implementation burden, and risk.

Output 2

First-Person Pathway

A concrete view of how the proposed future works for the first real person the system must serve.

Output 3

Human + AI Operating Model

What AI does, what people do, where judgment resides, and how responsibility moves through the pathway.

Output 4

Constraint & Safeguard Map

Data, governance, clinical, operational, ethical, trust, and adoption constraints that must be resolved.

Output 5

90-Day Experiment Specification

The smallest credible real-world test capable of generating useful evidence.

Output 6

Executive Decision Dossier

A clear recommendation to build, buy, partner, test, redesign, defer, or stop — and the reasoning leadership can defend.

What makes this different.

Most AI strategy begins with the technology.

We begin with the health outcome.

We work backward through the real system — people, workflows, handoffs, data, trust, governance, safeguards, and incentives — before determining the appropriate role for AI.

The goal is not to produce more ideas. The goal is to make a better institutional decision.

What comes next.

If the answer is “do not proceed,” the Sprint has done its job.

If there is a credible opportunity, System Enablers can continue into:

  • AI Operating Model Design
  • 90-Day Operating Pilot
  • Portfolio & Transformation Partnership

The first engagement does not obligate the institution to continue.

Standard engagement.

Complex multi-country or multi-system work is scoped separately.

Questions.

Do we need to know exactly how we want to use AI?
No. That is often the problem the Sprint is designed to resolve. You need a consequential health outcome, population, program, workflow, or mandate worth examining.
Are you selling an AI product?
No. System Enablers is technology-agnostic. We first determine what the system needs. Build, buy, or partner decisions follow from that analysis.
Will you implement what you recommend?
When appropriate. The Opportunity Sprint can lead into operating-model design and a live pilot, but continuation is a separate decision.
Is this clinical care?
No. System Enablers works with institutions on health-system design, innovation, workflows, implementation, and decision-making. It does not provide individual medical diagnosis or treatment through this service.
What happens on the first call?
We identify the health outcome or institutional decision you are responsible for, establish whether there is a problem System Enablers can credibly help solve, and determine whether the Opportunity Sprint is the appropriate next step.

Bring us the health problem.
We will help determine what AI changes.
