K:D Named a Foundational Partner for USC’s Revolutionary Virtual Care Clinic
The Virtual Care Clinic is a disruptive healthcare model that utilizes cutting-edge technology—including mobile apps, wearable and implanted sensors, virtual reality, and even virtual humans—coupled with evidence-based health information to provide borderless, on-demand access to healthcare. With no walls and no wires, the Virtual Care Clinic enables the seamless delivery of medical information and care without the need for patients or providers to be in the same place.
“Health care has evolved into a consumer-driven model, and sophisticated medical centers understand that creating integrated solutions with outside partners on digital health initiatives is imperative,” said Leslie Saxon, MD and executive director of the USC Center for Body Computing. “Our Virtual Care Clinic is a unique collaboration with partners like Karten Design and is truly the democratization of health care, allowing anyone access to our medical experts without leaving their home. The Virtual Care Clinic delivers on the promise that digital health offers.”
In addition to Karten Design, the USC Center for Body Computing invited seven other best-in-class foundational partners to establish the Virtual Care Clinic ecosystem: the USC Institute of Creative Technologies (ICT), Dr. Evidence, IMS Health, Medable, Planet Grande, Proteus Digital Health and VSP Global.
Leveraging our expertise in medical and digital health design, Karten Design is excited to work together with the Virtual Care Clinic to develop meaningful, user-centric solutions that blend seamlessly into the lives of today’s discerning health consumers.
