Inspiration
By 2030, over 80K+ seniors on Medicare will be navigating two or more chronic conditions...and at the same time, the AMA is forecasting a 20K physician shortfall for this group.
Our initial program sat on smartphones, but we couldn't get first 60 day usage above 35%.
We built a quick Alexa prototype and after three rounds of pilots have initial usage above 75%.
What it does
LIGHTHOUSE puts your doctor on your kitchen table. We connect a patient to their physician's care plan.
How I built it
Alexa Conversations + Lambda/nodejs + RDS + Cognito
Challenges I ran into
We had to restart a few times to get Conversations to work – we had errors we couldn't wrestle down and had to start blank slate. That was frustrating. Additionally, we needed some Conversations-led dialogs as well as old school and it took us a bunch of rounds of iteration to get those two models to work in concert.
What's next for LIGHTHOUSE Voice Conversations
More content, more conditions, more EMR integrations, more Medicare revenue.
