VANCOUVER — A new digital health assessment tool called Healthcheck has been added to the Babylon by Telus Health app, the company announced in an email on Wednesday.
Healthcheck is an AI-driven tool designed by doctors, scientists and epidemiologists to give users a holistic view of their health and provide recommendations for lifestyle changes to reduce risk for disease.
Healthcheck offers the following features:
- Assessment: An engaging, conversational chatbot interface asks users about their medical history and lifestyle factors to assess their current health status and predict their future disease risks.
- Digital Twin: Assessment results are presented through a “digital twin”, a realistic representation of the human body broken down by organs, which users can explore to gain a better understanding of their risks and the factors affecting them.
- Insights: Through the detailed assessment of medical history, family history, diet, lifestyle and mood, Healthcheck creates a clinically accurate projection of the user’s potential risk for disease and suggests lifestyle changes to reduce their risk levels.
