Our take
Telehealth has boomed in recent years but, like any technological shift, new problems have arisen. Even though the U.S. healthcare system has successfully adopted virtual care, challenges lie ahead to ensure it is used to deliver the best care to patients and at the right cost.
Curai aims to integrate technology into human processes so it can complement how doctor's work. It is a chat-based platform that uses artificial intelligence to help them make better and quicker decisions. Doctor's who see patients still have to operate electronic health records, which can be time consuming. Curai's algorithm scans through medical records and organizes key points in seconds. By leveraging AI to increase productivity, they plan to make the cost of care lower.
Curai Health is partly backed by billionaire venture capitalist Vinod Khosla, the father of the co-founder and CEO, Neal Khosla. The company has partnered with WorkWhile, an hourly labor marketplace, to provide free access to telehealth services for workers on its platform. Securing more key partnerships such as this and its 2024 partnership with healthcare benefits platform Rightway will be key to its future success.
