bold idea
Create equitable health care access for marginalized and displaced communities in MEA countries through an AI-enabled telemedicine platform connecting patients to a global network of language- and culture-matched specialists.
organization overview
Speetar is a community-driven telehealth platform that provides affordable, quality health care in adverse conditions and provides a centralized location for health data to protect increasingly mobile populations, such as refugees and migrants. In the longer term, Speetar addresses brain-drain by training local practitioners, builds out telehealth infrastructure, and creates sustainable solutions based on systematic data. Patients access affordable, language/culture-matched health specialists practicing abroad for primary diagnosis and follow-up care through its platform. Health care inequalities mirror and exacerbate social, racial, gendered, and economic inequities. Speetar’s most-used specialties serve seniors, women, and patients with mental health concerns.
