"Revolutionizing US Healthcare: Tech Start-Ups' Slick Makeover"
Originally Published 1 year ago — by BBC.com
Several tech start-ups are revolutionizing the US healthcare industry by offering curated, minimalist, and efficient healthcare services, both physically and digitally. These companies aim to address major pain points in the healthcare system, such as cost and accessibility, by providing inviting and spa-like environments, simplifying appointment-booking, and working directly with insurers. The proliferation of virtual health start-ups has been accelerated by the pandemic, making digital services more desirable and accessible. While these disruptors have made healthcare more accessible and convenient, their overall success and viability remain uncertain, with the need for collaboration between traditional healthcare providers and start-ups to navigate regulatory and payment challenges.
