One of three finalists for the Challenge, Ooney competed live at Health 2.0 on Monday, September 16th and demoed our technology in front of an audience of health care professionals, investors, provider organizations, and members of the media.
Ooney beat out the other finalists and was awarded the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Home & Community Based Care Innovation Challenge.
“Digital solutions empower consumers and providers to actively engage in managing and improving health outside of traditional clinical systems. New technologies provide convenient, affordable, and comfortable care within homes and communities. This movement can greatly support individuals of all ages across a variety of geographies. However, despite these benefits, the US continues to use mostly institution-based care models. Cultural shifts and more innovation is required to give individuals, caregivers, and providers the tools they need to address healthy living within the home and community. “
This pitch event was Presented by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and Powered by Catalyst at Health 2.0.
