Catalyzing cutting-edge innovations, designs and technology in healthcare
The future of healthcare depends on innovative technological solutions and new business models of care, now more than ever. From universal access to robotics and AI assisted patient care and remote monitoring, how we prevent, treat and manage healthcare will depend on our ability to incorporate AI/VR and NLP, wearables and devices. This Innovation Challenge is meant to engage innovators, entrepreneurs, students, non-profits, and philanthropists to look at health technology from this new perspective.
The challenge is to identify a focus area from those listed below and submit a written proposal of your solution. The proposal should include the use of one or more CharmHealth APIs to implement your solution or should describe how this would be used in a similar EHR platform or in the digital healthcare domain.
