Our Mission

The Medentum team has a passion to promote health equity. We believe affordable, accessible, and high-performance point-of-care health monitoring and testing solutions should be available to everyone, regardless of geographic location.

The Problem

65 million rural Americans suffer from substantial health and socioeconomic disparities compared to urban Americans

Gap between death rates in urban vs. rural areas tripled in the past 2 decades

The geographical isolation of rural areas limits patient access to doctors and hospitals to receive care

Telehealth can address some barriers but is limited by broadband availability and lack of real-time patient data

Future Directions- Multimodal AiI

COPD OR ASTHMA (CHRONIC)

Platform intelligently alerts respiratory patients to use device in response to weather/air quality triggers

Patients record device biometrics, report symptoms, check point-of-care lab test (at-home) for real-time respiratory status

AI analysis predicts risk of COPD /asthma exacerbation. Connects to provider and patient starts early treatment  (e.g. steroids)

ENT CONDITION (ACUTE)

Patient inputs sore throat and other symptoms in the app

Patient images throat and ear with device, and collects vital signs (at-home)

AI analysis predicts strep throat and recommends treatment. Connects to provider for amoxicillin.

COPD: $50 consultation vs a $8500 hospitalization
