Case File #157: Misdiagnosed

“Listen to your doctor” – advice as old as medicine itself. But what happens when your doctor doesn’t have all your key medical information? How can you get the right treatment without the right data? A staggering 12 million misdiagnoses happen every year in the United States. Host Roshini Rajkumar digs into the drastic stats with healthcare technology insider and Altheia co-founder Jolly Nanda, who shares why her new healthcare app, Acuvia, could provide the antidote for gaps in our healthcare information systems. Often, problems arise when patient data is fragmented, doesn't translate among systems, or is just plain inaccessible. Altheia’s groundbreaking Acuvia app lets users take control of their healthcare data management and care. The Crisis Files is honored to be one of the first to widely preview how Acuvia makes medical records standardized and portable, transforming how medical information is handled. A major benefit? Predictive analytics minimize the risk of misdiagnosis.
