Improve data liquidity, rights, interoperability and security
Hundreds of billions of dollars a year are squandered dealing with old, bad, late, missing, or stolen data. Data drives decisions. Powers payments. Ensures compliance. The right data at the right time can save time, money, and lives. We’re here to make it happen.
Chronic care
In 2016, our nation spent more than $2.3 trillion on healthcare for people with chronic and mental health conditions. Seven of the top 10 causes of death in the U.S. are from chronic diseases. Yet our nation’s healthcare system is designed around acute care delivered in hospitals rather than chronic care delivered in the ambulatory setting. We are working to fund commercial solutions that identify health risks, improve care access, support patient engagement, and create novel care interfaces and access.
Radical productivity
Physicians in the United States spend 50% of their working week wrestling with data. Only 30% is spent working with patients. The healthcare industry ranks fourth from the bottom in U.S. productivity. Major advances in artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, digital communication, and consumer orientation have yet to reach most physician practices. Harnessing powerful technologies that simplify and enable new capabilities is critical to the future of healthcare.
Healthcare value
Healthcare, and how we pay for it, will be fundamentally different in the next 15 years: 1) Disease burdens are shifting; 2) Care requirements for less capital-intensive footprints require a distributed model of care delivery. These large changes create new business models and incentives.
