Lawrence “Larry” Waldman and the Work of Building What’s Missing

Careers are rarely built in straight lines. Lawrence “Larry” Waldman’s path shows how steady experience, service, and observation can turn into big ideas that actually get built. Waldman did not set out to become a healthcare technology founder. His career started with teamwork, discipline, and service. Over time, those lessons shaped how he saw problems in healthcare and why he chose to act on them.

“I’ve always paid attention to how systems really work,” Waldman says. “Once you see the gaps, it’s hard to ignore them.”


Today, based in Florida, Waldman is best known for his work in healthcare consulting and fraud prevention technology. His journey there unfolded one chapter at a time.


Growing up in oceanside, New York


Larry Waldman grew up in Oceanside, New York. Sports played a major role in his early life. He played football at Oceanside High School and learned how structure and accountability show up long before a career begins.


“Football teaches you discipline fast,” he says. “You learn that effort matters every day, not just on game day.”


He graduated from Oceanside High School in 1985. After that, he attended SUNY Oneonta. In 1990, he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Speech Communications.


That choice turned out to be practical.


“Being able to communicate clearly opens doors,” Waldman explains. “It helps you lead, solve problems, and avoid confusion.”


Military service and a strong foundation


In 1993, Waldman joined the United States Army. He served from 1993 to 2001 and was honorably discharged after nearly eight years.


The Army reinforced habits that stayed with him.


“You learn responsibility quickly,” he says. “You don’t pass problems down the line. You own them.”


Military service also sharpened his leadership style. He learned how systems succeed or fail, driven by structure and accountability.


Those lessons would follow him into civilian life.


Entering senior living and healthcare operations


After leaving the Army, Waldman entered the senior living industry. From 2002 to 2008, he worked with Atria Senior Living Group.


This role gave him hands-on exposure to healthcare operations and patient-focused environments.


“You see how much trust families place in these systems,” he says. “That stays with you.”


Working in senior living also revealed how complex healthcare really is behind the scenes. Policies, billing, care delivery, and compliance all intersect.


That complexity sparked his curiosity.


Broadening perspective at comprehensive wellness


From 2008 to 2013, Waldman worked with Comprehensive Wellness. This period expanded his understanding of healthcare services and organizational strategy.


“I started seeing patterns,” he explains. “What worked, what didn’t, and where systems broke down.”


Instead of focusing only on day-to-day operations, he began looking at structural issues. That shift changed how he approached his work.


It also set the stage for consulting.


A move into healthcare consulting


In 2013, Waldman transitioned into healthcare consulting, where he continues to work today.


Consulting placed him inside many healthcare environments. He reviewed workflows, compliance efforts, and operational challenges. Over time, one issue kept appearing.


“I kept noticing how hard it was to detect fraud early,” Waldman says. “The tools just weren’t keeping up.”


Healthcare provider fraud tied to Medicare and commercial insurance programs costs billions each year. Waldman saw the consequences up close.


“That money affects care, trust, and resources,” he says. “It’s not abstract.”


Turning an idea into cyberhealth AI


Instead of just naming the problem, Waldman decided to build something to address it. He founded Ai Health Technologies, Inc. and invented Cyberhealth AI.


His goal was to help improve how fraud is detected and prevented, while supporting compliance and transparency.


“I wasn’t trying to chase technology for its own sake,” he explains. “I wanted something practical.”


Cyberhealth AI was designed to help reduce waste and improve accountability across healthcare systems.


“Good systems protect the honest people,” Waldman says. “That matters.”


As President of Cyberhealth AI, he focuses on innovation grounded in real-world experience.


Leadership, routine, and long-term thinking


Waldman’s leadership style reflects his background. He values routine, consistency, and effort.


“I believe in showing up every day,” he says. “That’s how progress actually happens.”


Outside of work, he spends time with family, stays physically active, and maintains a strong daily routine.


Those habits support how he works and leads.


Lawrence “Larry” Waldman’s ongoing impact


Lawrence “Larry” Waldman’s career spans military service, senior living, healthcare operations, consulting, and technology development. Each stage is built on the one before it.


Rather than chasing attention, he focused on building what he saw was missing.


“At the end of the day, I just want the work to matter,” he says. “I want it to improve the system.”


Based in Florida, Lawrence “Larry” Waldman continues working at the intersection of healthcare and technology. His career shows how big ideas often start with paying attention, asking better questions, and being willing to build practical solutions over time.
