It began with one question:
Why, in an age of instant communication, are patients still carrying paper files from hospital to hospital? Why is the patient journey so broken?
For decades, healthcare has been fragmented. Records are trapped in silos. Patients repeat tests. Doctors make decisions with partial information. And when emergencies strike, lives depend on data that no one can find.
Anish Kumar, Founder & CEO of Innovations Infinite Ltd, experienced this problem firsthand while caring for his family in India. He experienced the challenges of carrying a backpack of paper files from one hospital to another, giving medications using multiple prescriptions from different hospitals and monitoring medication and health of family members while living in a different country. These challenges shouldn't have existed in the 21st century.
He realised that UK is extremely privileged to have an organisation like NHS and centralised health record system. Most countries even with good healthcare don't.
Determined to do something about it, using his low-code platform, RapidSolutions.ai, he created a universal, patient-owned health record, one that could connect every part of the healthcare ecosystem.
The idea grew into a global mission: To ensure that every person on Earth, rich or poor, has access to their full medical history whenever and wherever they need it.
Thus, the World Health Record was born, an initiative dedicated to making healthcare continuity a universal human right.
