hospitals can be an intimidating place, especially for children. The white sterile walls and big noisy machines can scare some kids and it’s possible they become uncomfortable and uncooperative. Of course a kind and caring health care professional can overcome these obstacles; but adding a little colour, fun and awe to the typically drab interiors can do a lot to help elevate one’s mindset.
A recent post on Reddit showed a picture of the Texas Children’s Hospital’s CT Scanner below. It was fun, playful and uplifting; a total mood enhancer to an uncomfortable situation for many. That sent the Sifter on a mission to find more examples of uplifting interiors. Enjoy!
The clock is ticking on this year's open enrollment period. However, thanks to Joany, signing up for health care has never been easier or faster. Joany's unique platform database uses an algorithm to factor in personal information, including medication history and lifestyle, to deliver personalized health care plan recommendations. Their website is the only source that includes data on every health care option offered throughout the country (on and off marketplace). Additionally, the Joany free concierge tool helps with identifying medical bill errors, researching the best specialists and doctors in their networks, and generally helping people make the most out of their health care plan.
Contextual omnipresence is about positioning your brand to be in exactly the right place at exactly the right time, in a slightly unexpected way.
The Cleveland Clinic’s plans for the future will depend on digital platforms such as telemedicine, data analytics and artificial intelligence, as the $8 billion healthcare organization looks beyond its core electronic health record system capabilities, according to new president and CEO Tom Mihaljevic, MD.
“Digital technology will allow us to deliver smarter, more affordable and more accessible” care, said Mihaljevic during his first State of the Clinic address. “The Cleveland Clinic has always been an early adopter, beginning with our electronic medical records. But now, we have to take technology even more seriously. We have to go for even more transformational technologic adoption.”

Orthly is a Philadelphia-based orthodontics startup looking to revolutionize how people interact with the orthodontics industry. Orthly first launched in 2017 with an app that scanned teeth and helped save customers thousands of dollars on invisible aligners by reducing the number of visits to the orthodontist. Moving beyond this simple interaction, Orthly is working on expanding their services with more functionality and also hopes to continue adding more cities to their service map. Their use of technology to make a solution that truly benefits all players is what will keep Orthly growing and help them disrupt the health care field as a whole.

YouCaring is a free online fundraising platform that pioneered Compassionate Crowdfunding™—empowering people worldwide to rally support for personal and charitable causes without the fundraising fees associated with other sites. To date, the YouCaring community is 5.5 million strong and has raised more than $1 Billion for humanitarian causes
Google Ventures-backed Flatiron Health has developed a cloud-based technology platform that's currently used by about 260 cancer clinics. The New York City startup takes the patient data it collects from those centers--without identifying details, of course--and shares it with pharmaceutical companies and researchers. The company raised an $8 million series A round in 2013. A little more than a year later, it raised $130 million, and a year after that, an additional $175 million, bringing its valuation to about $1.2 billion. Flatiron is one of fewer than a dozen billion-dollar-valuation "unicorn" companies in the health care space.

Predictive: Identification of individual risks of developing certain diseases based on the person’s genetic profile and other personal information
In 2013, the FDA ruled that genetic-testing company 23andMe, which has raised a total of $233 million, could no longer sell one of its signature services: test results that indicate a person's propensity to develop inherited diseases. Since then, Mountain View, California's 23andMe has mainly been using its genetic testing services to provide information about ancestry and origin. But in April of this year, the company finally won FDA approval to sell direct-to-consumer tests that provide genetic health risk information for conditions such as Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and hereditary thrombophilia.

CRISPR-Cas9 is a unique technology that enables geneticists and medical researchers to edit parts of the genome? by removing, adding or altering sections of the DNA? sequence.
It is currently the simplest, most versatile and precise method of genetic manipulation and is therefore causing a buzz in the science world.
Helium is noted for having a "hassle-free platform that brings 10X efficiency to patient records and hospital management." They built a straightforward user interface to help hospital employees have a better time inputting, accessing, and managing patient data. This platform has been particularly targeted towards African markets, where hospital employees tend to not have as much access to higher education and user training alone is viewed as an ineffective solution. Through their efforts, more than 20 hospitals have adopted the platform and seen massive improvements to their organizational management.
