InterOPERANT LLC is developing a Block Chain powered Consumer platform to support Health, Wellness and Prevention of Disease - Radiant Health.today
The
Problem:
It is
commonly known that insured American healthcare consumers (65% of population)
pay twice per capita what Europeans do for healthcare and we are less healthy.
The extraordinary total cost of the US healthcare system around 23% of GNP or
$4.1 trillion has made American based businesses non-competitive. It is also
bankrupting the middle class. Obamacare was not the answer and neither will
other incremental reforms to the current system. A new streamlined, consumer
centric approach to healthcare needs to be designed from scratch.
The Solution:
Enter
Radiant Health.today and the Radiant Health Outcome Composer. This
product/service is a smartphone App that confidentially and securely presets
and tracks user biometric, preventative, integrative and lifestyle data to
guide the user to Radiant Health Outcomes over time. The Radiant Health Outcome
Composer™ (RHOC) is a buttery smooth health and wellness UI which addresses
total health and wellness obstacles, treatments and challenges. RHOC allows a
user to map a wellness lifestyle path that incorporates all the key variables
that affect wellness. . With RHOC™ anyone can learn how to create their own
Radiant Health map and plan in less than 20 minutes. While the RHOC UI is
intuitive an easy to use and interpret, it can accommodate the unique
circumstances of individuals and be customized to meet their specific health
and wellness needs. As well it runs within the Block Chain full Asset
Trust model. The net effect for younger cohort groups getting into the
RHOC program is expected to be far less chronic age related degenerative
disease, lower long-term health care costs, more active monitoring of health
between doctors or CAM providers and patients and healthier, happier, higher
energy consumers.
"Finally, health care, which has been largely immune to the forces
of disruptive innovation, is beginning to change. Seeing the potential to improve
health with simple primary-care strategies, some of the biggest incumbent
players are inviting new entrants focused on empowering consumers into their
highly regulated ecosystems, bringing down costs."This shift is long
overdue. Whereas new technologies, competitors, and business models have made
products and services more affordable and accessible in media, finance, retail,
and other sectors, U.S. health care keeps getting costlier. It is now by far
the world’s most expensive system per capita, about twice that of the UK,
Canada, and Australia, with chronic conditions such as diabetes and heart
disease now accounting for more than 80% of total spending.These astronomical
costs are largely due to the way competition works in American health care.
Employers and insurance companies — not end consumers — call the shots on what
kind of care they will pay for. Large hospitals and physician practices, in
turn, compete as if they’re in an arms race to attract payers, adding advanced
diagnostic gear or new surgical wings to differentiate, driving up costs.
In most industries, disruption comes from startups. Yet almost all health care
innovation funded since 2000 has been for sustaining the industry’s business
model rather than disrupting it. Our analysis of Pitchbook Data shows that more than $200 billion has been poured into
health care venture capital, mostly in biotech, pharma, and devices where
advances typically make health care more sophisticated — and expensive. Less
than 1% of those investments have focused on helping consumers to play a more
active role in managing their own health, an area ripe for disruptive
approaches." Jennifer Maravillas, HBR.
