Challenge, approach, and impact

Health Folder approached Pragmatic Coders to develop a product capable of scanning medical test results and converting them into a digital format. The objective was to create a mobile and web app that would allow patients to access, search through, and share their medical documentation at all times. Based on this request, our team identified five key points that needed to be addressed in order to deliver value to Health Folder's users: The documentation upload process should be user-friendly and intuitive to encourage app usage. The AI model should read and categorize medical test results and be able to make predictions based on the patient’s medical history It should also understand all medical documents' units, formats, and norms. The app should allow users to easily correct any errors made by the AI when scanning documents. The app should comply with all relevant data protection laws and regulations, prioritizing the security and privacy of sensitive patient data. The biggest challenge we identified was related to collecting enough medical test results to train the AI model with a high confidence level. This is why we decided to release the mobile app as a first step and offer it for free to early adopters, who would upload their medical documentation. Thanks to that, we would be able to collect enough data to train and improve the AI.
