How do I become an advisor to a startup?


I have a passion for healthcare technology, and product development. I would love to slowly enter into the space. Here are some areas I would love to contribute into:

- Minimizing the reliance on monolithic insurance

- EHR / EMR Analytics

- Minimize the gap of knowledge between consumer and insurance by increasing medical transparency

- Making doctors' lives more efficient.

How can I work with founders / find startups and become an advisor? This is one idea I had to enter the space. CMV if I am thinking in the wrong direction.

How do you become an advisor in field XYZ?

Simple answer - become a domain expert in the topic by Blogging, Contributing to Open source Projects and .... ah hell, just do a HN search (https://hn.algolia.com/?q=PG) and wade through the treasure trove of info. Not to say that he is an all knowing god or anything but once you have worked your way through something like https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2012339 you will have a greater understanding of the question you have asked. Personal opinion only.
