OUR PURPOSE

Transforming kidney stone disease care.

In response to the increasing incidence of Kidney Stone Disease (KSD), we envision transforming care delivery by integrating e-health services into traditional care, embracing a value-based care approach. This shift from the present inefficient equality-based model to a more effective, patient-centered equity and value-based model aims to enhance care in alignment with patients’ daily lives.

Our innovative, hybrid healthcare coordination system is designed to improve individual health and outcomes. It aligns with society’s growing digitalization and the healthcare sector’s growing commitment to equitable care.

OUR VISION

Seven key objectives for personalized kidney stone prevention.

  • Link patients and healthcare providers with worldwide certified health care professionals.
  • Integrate AI technology to enhance automated healthcare workflows and home monitoring.
  • Make home care more user-friendly, flexible, and accessible with advanced digital tools.
  • Enhance prevention, diagnosis, and risk stratification of KSD.
  • Reorganize care to balance hospital and home care, centered around patient needs.
  • Offer customized care plans and coordinated prevention strategies.
  • Provide evidence and data on how technology improves care delivery, clinical outcomes, and satisfaction in patient-centered home care.
