Ask Stripe Anything: payment infrastructure for digital health startups
This is the first event we’re hosting within the new Stripe HealthTech Community platform, and we’re excited to use it as an opportunity to bring everyone together and introduce the space where we’ll continue building this community!
Digital health companies are navigating a moment where payment flows, billing models, fraud prevention, AI workflows, and global expansion are all evolving at once.
Join us for an open AMA focused on the payment infrastructure decisions healthtech founders and builders need to consider as they build and scale.
The session will be hosted by Hillary Watson, GTM Strategist at Xmartlabs and Stripe HealthTech Community Builder, and will feature Sheetal Rishi, Enterprise GTM Strategy & Transformation from Stripe as our speaker.
We’ll start with a brief perspective from Stripe on what they’re seeing in healthcare, and then move into a moderated conversation shaped by audience questions.
To help guide the discussion, here are some topics you might want to explore:
- Payment flows, subscriptions, reconciliation, reporting, and taxes
- Build vs. buy decisions for billing and payment infrastructure
- Fraud prevention and trust in healthtech payment flows
- Marketplaces, provider/vendor onboarding, and multi-sided healthtech platforms
- Agentic AI and how emerging workflows may impact payments and operations
- Global expansion, stablecoins, and what may be next for digital health payments
These are just ideas to get the conversation started — you’re welcome to bring any other questions or challenges you’re thinking through.
No slides-heavy webinar. No generic playbook. Just a practical conversation with Stripe for teams building in digital health.
We’ll also take a few minutes during the session to walk through the new Stripe HealthTech Community platform and show how you can continue the conversation, connect with other builders, and stay involved after the event.
