- Albert Health — 50% of people with chronic diseases do not take medications as prescribed. Improper medication use, especially for elderly patients, leads to hospitalizations and costs insurers billions of dollars. Current apps in the market are too complicated and difficult to use for the elderly who suffer the most from chronic diseases. Albert is a voice-basedhealth assistant which is accessible through mobile app, Amazon Alexa and Google assistant. Our machine learning algorithms create a unique conversational medication management experience. Elderly patients don’t have to text anymore. They will talk with Albert to manage their medications in an easy and effortless way. Patients can easily track health measurements, keep medical diary and set pill reminder by voice command. Furthermore, “Caregiver Mode” allows family members to manage and monitor their relatives’ treatment remotely. Albert helps elderly patients to take the right dose at the right time and help insurers to have less medical expenses, more satisfied customers.
