For Haritha Alla, a cardiologist practicing in the Los Angeles area, the daily routine often involves the tedious task of data collection. Patients grapple with cumbersome intake forms, and the process consumes a significant portion of the clinical day.
A California-based health tech company, Akido, is aiming to change that dynamic. The company is putting artificial intelligence to work to streamline the entire medical visit process, from initial patient intake through to diagnosis. This innovative approach takes advantage of AI’s ability to handle repetitive and administrative tasks, like sifting through large quantities of data.
Akido’s co-founders are CTO Jared Goodner, Chief Business Development Officer Sanjit Mahanti and CEO Prashant Samant.
