Bilal Basrai is co-founder & Head of Business Development at SharpScribe, which was founded by experienced healthcare and financial specialists who recognized the inappropriate and inefficient use of the physician skill set for routine documentation tasks.
Bilal’s mission is to help ease the electronic medical record (EMR) documentation demands for physicians. He believes this will not only provide for more satisfied physicians and happier patients, but also generate an immediate ROI for the physician’s practice in the process. Bilal’s philosophy in co-founding SharpScribe is that it provides a “win-win-win” for the physician, patient & scribe (employee).
Prior to co-founding SharpScribe in 2016, Bilal was an investment banker & equity research analyst for over 20 years covering the Healthcare sector and primarily living & working in New York City for various global investment banks. Bilal has been involved in over $4.5 billion worth of transactions in the healthcare sector over his Wall Street career. His finance & healthcare background along with his experience advising many healthcare companies on capital formation, mergers & acquisitions, & strategy played a key role in co-founding and building SharpScribe.
