If you've seen how your application looks in ERAS, it probably looks like you could survive automatic screens for board scores and would have to manually be screened out. During this manual screen, you have a few very positive experiences that could plausibly explain your red flag and be #worth, depending on how you articulate it in your PS and interview. Healthcare IT and knowing how to make money? I would be extremely surprised if you don't get at least a dozen invites from PDs who want to increase their side hustle game.
