Building a Business That Solves a Real Problem
What happens when you see a problem in your industry — and decide to build a solution instead of accepting it?
In this episode of The Back Office, Dalayna Dillon sits down with Elliot Mooney, founder of Mooney Cardiac Screening, to explore what it looks like to build a mission-driven business rooted in accessibility, affordability, and real-world need.
After years working in healthcare, Elliot saw firsthand the challenges patients face — from rising costs to lack of insurance coverage to the fear and inconvenience associated with traditional medical settings. Those experiences led him to create a different kind of solution: a mobile cardiac screening service that brings testing directly to patients, removing barriers and making preventative care more accessible.
This conversation dives into the realities of launching a business in the healthcare space, the risks involved in challenging traditional systems, and the discipline required to build something that prioritizes both impact and sustainability.
At its core, this episode is about seeing clearly — identifying a gap, trusting your perspective, and taking action to create something better.
No one has it fully figured out.
But we’re building anyway.
