Well, let's make the idea clear first:
Let's assume that you've got a fitness tracker. It collects some data that is slightly analyzed by some pretty useless app that can tell you just a bit about you. After months and months, the amount of data is huge, but all you can get out of it - just same "clever advice" like "you should sleep more" or "your heart rate is better than 68% of people have"
We want to build an app that will give really clever advice to you, based on all the data that YOU collected. And if it's not cool enough, we will even pay you for every data submission with our tokens!
But where do we take funds to make you get paid? That's a good and very reasonable question. Where are most of the money in medicine being held? Insurance companies! Why would they be interested in that? There was a poll held in most of the countries where the question was: "how likely will people wear different trackers if insurance company will say that it's necessary?" And in most countries, people are likely to wear that.
But why would they buy that? That's simple, they will reduce the costs on medical treatment. How many times you visited doctor when there was no health issue at all? Let's assume, you're young and this is not about you. But what about elderly people with their overestimated concerns about their health? Trackers can really replace doctors in most time-consuming cases when people only need to be consulted. Less visits to the doctor = less doctors needed. Less cabinets needed.
Paying for medical treatment with our tokens, why not? We can maintain good price on them by creating constant flow of tokens between users, insurance companies and clinics. To start with, we will create in-app market where every user will be able to get discount on some new wearable trackers by paying some part of the price with our tokens.
We don't want to give our tokens to "fast-fortune makers" that invest only to get the profit fast. We want investors that really support our project, that are planning long-term investments to get involved in the project that will really make great change to the world. We've chosen the WHA (world health app) name to be associated with WHO (world health organization) one day. Oh yes, WHO in few years can use our services to get true information on the health condition of all the countries.
Are we too ambitious and planning to do something that nobody ever tried?
Do you know the Qualcomm brand name? then you might be interested in their project http://www.qualcommlife.com/
Another young name - Litra https://litra.site/ But let's compare them to our project:
Litra is planning to make electronic health record (EHR they call it) that will hold static data about patient's health. Litra currently raised more than $10 millions on that.
QualcommLife has enough of the funds to make whatever they imagine, I believe as I'm writing this text using the processor, produced by them =)
But how is our Project different?
We aim to create dynamic EHR (Litra might want to steal this idea) We will REWARD our users (no other Project plans that)
Now let's assume, you're from Melbourne. You either believe in our Project or just wait for few years and your Insurance company (Medibank or HCF) will offer you to wear a tracker, marked with three letters on it - "WHA"
