Currently, one in three Canadians has diabetes or prediabetes. Type 2 diabetes accounts for 90 to 95 percent of cases. According to the PWC Health Research Institute report, most American consumers desire new digital therapies and connected devices as treatment options, moreover, physicians are inclined towards the use of these tools as well. Additionally, the Government of Canada aims for transformative growth in the health and bioscience industry by advocating nationally robust, digitalized, interconnected and patient-centered health data infrastructure.
With 360Care, Ellerca Health is bringing to market a vital solution to bring about change in the lives of millions of people in Canada and worldwide. Improving the health of individuals with diabetes and prediabetes by lowering HbA1c, reducing weight, and dropping ASCVD risk scores, lowers the overall costs of care carried by consumers, employers, insurers, and the government. The benefits of Ellerca Health's digital health management platform are appreciated by patients, caregivers, providers, and payers alike.
Addressing increasing concerns about privacy in a connected world, Ellerca Health's digital platform quickly provides critical patient data to providers in a secure environment ensuring that every user's medical care team has the right contextual information to give attentive, insightful, private, and compassionate care. For healthcare consumers, having care providers actually know what is going on with one's health is a gamechanger, creating a sense of companionship and alleviating the burden of navigating challenging healthcare journeys alone.
