Health-tech companies have the potential to bridge gaps in Canadian health care by supporting and empowering government infrastructure
, or the Connected Care for Canadians Act, aimed at bringing personal health information into the digital age.
Docus aims to make a doctor’s time less about paperwork and more about patient care by using AI to streamline internal processes, administrative work and data analysis. “What’s more important, though, is the equity it drives, as that lets people in rural areas get the same level of care as urban centres do. It does go a long way to fight inequity in health care access.”
“Most of the health-tech solutions used in Canada are built in the U.S., and they don’t always align with our unique health care delivery model or the principles of universal care,” he says. “We saw an opportunity to build a Canadian solution, tailored to our system and centred around patient empowerment.”
That holistic patient journey is the conundrum that ODAIA Intelligence Inc., co-founded by University of Toronto academics, seeks to understand and improve. “We knew AI could play a major role in helping sales find, reach, and educate the right doctors, dramatically speed the time from diagnosis to treatment, and get the right therapies to millions of patients faster. Nobody was doing it by fully leveraging scalable AI.”
