MediKarma, the pioneering AI-driven healthcare platform, has officially announced the launch of LifeStyle JILL®, which happens to a first-of-its-kind AI-powered digital coach focused on helping individuals take control of their long-term health by adopting sustainable lifestyle changes.
According to certain reports, LifeStyle JILL® arrives on the scene bearing an ability to facilitate the transaction from reactive symptom treatment to proactive, personalized healthcare, offering guidance on key lifestyle pillars of nutrition, exercise, stress management, sleep, and medication adherence.
Before we dig any further, though, we must take into account how the healthcare industry of today is under immense pressure due to limited access to care, rising costs, “under-insurance” to fragmented care systems, and a sheer lack of personalized solutions to reverse and prevent disease.
Another detail contextualizing the importance of such a development is a fact that, for self-insured organizations and HMOs, chronic conditions’ economic impact has been staggering thus far. We say so because top 5% of patients are currently understood to drive nearly 50% of costs.
Furthermore, there are virtually no solutions that are cost effective enough to be deployed for the remaining 95% to avoid and prevent chronic disease.
Talk about how LifeStyle JILL is going to address the given problem, it will leverage advanced AI and real-time health data to play the role of an interactive healthcare coach, who can continuously adapt as per each user’s habits and medical history.
“We believe that the future of healthcare lies in personalization and early intervention, which is why we are excited to bring MediKarma’s LifeStyle JILL® to the communities we serve. By empowering our patient population with real-time, AI-driven insights, we are not just improving individual well-being – we are helping to drive down costs and create a more sustainable healthcare system,” said Amish Purohit, President and Chief Medical Officer of Arkos Health.
An even deeper lowdown of the solution’s features would reveal its ability to ingest and integrate data, while simultaneously providing insights and suggestions tailored to each individual.
Next up, we have the integration of EHR/EMR and wearable data, something which comes in handy when the agenda is to monitor and engage patients. Complementing that would be the availability of personalized healthcare coaching focused on supporting healthy lifestyle & behavior modifications.
To expand upon the prospect of personalization, we must take into account how users can seamlessly generate AI-driven nutritional insights. This translates to how they can click pictures of their meals and receive customized dietary suggestions to align with their health goals.
Alongside that, you can enjoy exercise plans built around your physical dynamics. LifeStyle JILL® effectively integrates with smart devices to offer comprehensive workout recommendations and ensure optimal fitness progression.
The solution also offers an assortment of stress management tools. By tracking stress levels, LifeStyle JILL® is able to provide real-time relaxation techniques to promote mental well-being.
In case that wasn’t enough, the personalization on display also facilitates sleep optimization. The solution does that by syncing with wearable devices to analyze sleep patterns and deliver tailored sleep improvement strategies.
Apart from that, there is also a medication and health management facility in place. The stated facility packs together an AI assistant capable of offering medication reminders, adherence tracking, and health forecasting to keep users on track with their wellness journey.
MediKarma’s latest brainchild will, in essence, of orchestrate potential annual savings of $1,210 per user, helping organizations optimize resources and prioritize prevention over treatment.
“LifeStyle JILL® is an exciting innovation that shifts the paradigm from a focus on treating disease to reversing and preventing disease. By combining health records from clinicians with personalized wearable data and layering in AI-driven personalization, the idea of personalized medicine becomes affordable and attainable by everyone. Lifestyle change and behavioral modification requires intense coaching that isn’t feasible within our healthcare system today. For those that value online tools and apps, LifeStyle JILL® provides real-time health insights, empowers individuals to take charge of their well-being,” said Ellen Brown, National Advisor, Podcast Host, Author & Top Voice in Healthcare Redesign.
