About the Problem
The business challenge
Perkk Check’s app offers solutions to two unique problems:
- It simplifies monitoring "home patients"
Nurses or social workers from home care agencies can oversee clients' health status, even if they aren't qualified physicians. Perkk Check was created to help by using facial scans to monitor vital health indicators. If a problem is detected, caregivers can refer the patient to a doctor or hospital.
- Perkk Check is a unique health benefit for company employees
Organizations can promote a healthy lifestyle by providing access to the Perkk Check system, which monitors health status confidentially. No employee or admin can access individual results. Companies can personalize the platform by selecting health indicators and applying their own branding.
Our Solution
What we delivered
Perkk Check is a brand belonging to Canadian not-for-profit health solutions partner - Medavie Inc. The product developed by Apzumi is a web-based platform dedicated to health assessment with the use of any device with camera and internet access.
The application developed by Apzumi presents visual test results through categorized graphs. It offers a detailed history and long-term analytics of user outcomes, assessing overall health risks. Users also benefit from a Health Hub, a repository of health-related medical articles.
The application features six user panels: patient, home care admin, health provider, wellness employee, wellness admin, and super admin. The first three are for home care services, the next two for the benefit system, and the last for managing all app users efficiently.
The Perkk Check platform utilizes Transdermal Optical Imaging (TOI™) technology. Based on just a 30-second video scan from your phone, tablet, or computer, along with a brief five-question mental health assessment, this technology offers a comprehensive overview of your overall health and wellness. As a result, the app generates over 30 health indicators grouped into 6 distinct categories.
