Vision

There is a significant need in healthcare now for interoperability. While everyone agrees this is an issue, even what we mean by interoperability is ambiguous. The interoperability challenge includes the absence of consistency, and lack of standardization for receiving, sending, and managing the data between various healthcare systems. There is also the added difficulty in making use of this data in analysis and measurement.

Objectives

  • Better clinical outcomes for the providers and patients
  • Better business outcomes for industry stakeholders
  • Better community outcomes for changemakers and social impact investors
  • Better socio-economic outcomes for governments and investors by uniting the staggeringly disconnected Digital Health / Tele Health / Med Tech ecosystem
REGISTRATION OPEN

Join the Tech4Health hackathon this January, hosted by MIT Hacking Medicine and AarogyaSeva to imagine and build solutions to solve this complex problem. Work with others on solutions that will lead to a radical paradigm shift.

Agenda

While large strides have been made in the field of Digital and Telehealth solutions, it’s become clear we’re all working within our own bubbles. In the current scenario interoperability and data sharing is a major challenge resulting in incomplete understanding of an individual’s or population’s health needs leading to poorer outcomes, higher costs and transferring the burden of consolidation onto the patient.

Our approach enables individuals in the field to have the ability to share their expertise, knowledge and experiences with one another, while consolidating individual patient and population data, leading to a radical paradigm shift.

Expected Outcomes

Tech4Health is a comprehensive end-to-end platform that brings integrated and interconnected OneHealth access to Healthcare Providers, Patients, Hospitals, Pharma, Diagnostics, Start-Ups, Academia, Entrepreneurs, Investors, Researchers, and more.

At Tech4Health we want to enable an interconnected and consolidated digital data sharing model, simultaneously uniting the movers and shakers in this post-covid watershed moment to share experiences, research findings, opinions, and initiatives.

Through this hackathon, it is our mission to create the groundwork for the movement to grow stronger as one.

Be a part of accelerating and making a significant contribution.

Themes

Discovery Platform for Healthcare Technology: The global healthcare system is a diverse space with numerous devices, services and technology that is dynamically changing by the minute. There is an urgent need to aggregate, discover, disseminate, and interpret these heterogeneous services through a personalized contextual process.

Interoperability in Healthcare: While large strides have been made in the field of Digital and Telehealth solutions, we are still working separately. Interoperability and data sharing is a major challenge resulting in an incomplete understanding of an individual’s or population’s health needs leading to poorer outcomes, higher costs and transferring the burden of consolidation onto the patient.

Integrative Food Solutions for Mass Personalization: At the frontiers of nutrition science, it has become evident that due to the immense variability in our genetic, metabolic and physiological responses to food, uniform recommendations on healthy food are not adequate.
