YC Grad & Esther Dyson-Backed Eligible Wants To Be The Stripe For Healthcare Transactions
In SoMeIT (Social Media Information Technology), we are fully dedicated to satisfying all of your web needs, integrating your business to social networks.
While there is a long list of startups that are using modern technology to improve healthcare and education — to make us healthier and more effective teachers and learners — many are still shying away from some of the most challenging technical problems. Not that this comes as a surprise, as both industries suffer from some intractable legacy infrastructure. Modernizing the infrastructures themselves, along with the way health companies integrate and exchange data is a difficult task.
Eligible, a San Francisco-based startup and member of Y Combinator’s most recent batch, is meeting this challenge head on. Big data is transforming healthcare (and education), and Eligible has set out to build a modern, standardized set of protocols to make it more accessible. A member of the same YC class as Clever, Eligible is applying the very same philosophy of its classmate to healthcare — to pulling down the barriers that restrict its interoperability, making it easier to manage and integrate.
