Summary

Healthapps combines AI with medical technology, revolutionizing healthcare through innovative solutions. There will be 2 apps that will be launched. 

The first is the AskMYDoctor app, which will be live on 18th November 2023 where users can schedule telehealth consultations with medical doctors. 

The second app that will be launched in 1H 2024 is for preventive care services helping users with Non-Communicable Diseases (NCD) to record, store, and share personal health information.

Both these apps empower individuals to track and store their vital signs securely in the cloud, facilitating real-time sharing and telehealth consultations with healthcare providers. 

To bring our solution to market and expand our reach, we are seeking funding support. This investment will enable us to further develop our technology, enhance our platform, and effectively launch our product to make a significant impact in the healthcare industry.

Problem

Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) like diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and chronic respiratory diseases have become a leading cause of illness, disability, and death worldwide. In addition, NCDs pose a significant burden on healthcare systems, economies, and the overall well-being of individuals and communities.

There are several existing pain points in managing NCDs which are not addressed:

Limited Access to Healthcare: Many individuals face challenges in accessing healthcare services, especially in remote or underserved areas. The lack of physical infrastructure and healthcare professionals makes it difficult for people to receive timely and adequate care.

Inefficient Health Monitoring: Traditional methods of health monitoring often require frequent in-person visits to healthcare facilities, which can be inconvenient and time-consuming. This hampers the ability to track health conditions effectively and intervene promptly when needed.

Fragmented Health Data: Health records and data are often stored in fragmented systems, making it difficult for healthcare providers to have a comprehensive view of a patient's medical history. This can lead to delays in diagnosis, treatment, and care coordination.

Reactive Approach to Healthcare: The healthcare system tends to be more reactive, focusing on treating illnesses rather than preventing them. There is a need for a shift towards proactive and preventive care, empowering individuals to manage their health and make informed decisions.

Lack of Personalized Care: Due to limitations in time and resources, providing personalized care to each patient can be a challenge. Tailoring treatment plans and interventions based on individual needs and preferences is essential for better health outcomes.

At Healthapps, we aim to revolutionize the industry and improve healthcare accessibility, efficiency, and outcomes for individuals globally.

Solution

Our solution to the challenges in the healthcare industry involves merging AI-powered digital health technologies with medical technology. By doing so, we aim to address the following problems:

Limited Access: We overcome the limitations of physical infrastructure and healthcare professional availability by providing remote access to healthcare services through our AI-driven platform. This enables individuals in remote or underserved areas to connect with healthcare providers and receive timely care.

Inefficient Health Monitoring: Our AI-powered applications allow individuals to track and monitor their vital signs and health conditions from the comfort of their homes. This provides more efficient and convenient health monitoring, reducing the need for frequent in-person visits to healthcare facilities.

Fragmented Health Data: We streamline health records and data by implementing integrated digital health platforms. This ensures that healthcare providers have access to comprehensive and up-to-date information, enabling better decision-making, coordination of care, and improved patient outcomes.

Reactive Approach to Healthcare: Through our AI technology, we promote a proactive approach to healthcare by leveraging data analytics and predictive modeling. By analyzing health data and identifying patterns, our system can provide early warnings, preventive measures, and personalized interventions, shifting the focus from reactive treatment to preventive care.

Lack of Personalized Care: Our AI-driven platform enables personalized care by leveraging machine learning algorithms and patient data. It tailors treatment plans, recommendations, and interventions based on individual characteristics, preferences, and medical history, ensuring a more patient-centric approach to healthcare.

By combining AI digital health with medical technology, our solution aims to address the pain points within the healthcare industry, improving access, efficiency, coordination, and personalization of care for individuals globally.
