With the Rise of AI, What IP Disputes in Healthcare Are Likely to Emerge?
Munck Wilson Mandala Partner Greg Howison shared his perspective on some of the legal ramifications around AI, IP, connected devices and the data they generate, in response to emailed questions.
The CONVERGE Startup Showcase features two dozen early-stage companies, selected by the editorial team at MedCityNews.com, that highlight some of the most unique solutions to healthcare’s biggest problems.
From mobile apps to other digital solutions, here is just a sampling of the innovative companies that will be at CONVERGE:
Curbside Care
Curbside Care is the “Uber for healthcare,” coordinating on-demand house calls via mobile and web-based applications. The technology platform bridges a market of fragmented supply and untapped demand by connecting shift-based M.D.s and N.P.s to patient users in real time.
A Personalized Approach to Medication Nonadherence
At the Abarca Forward conference earlier this year, George Van Antwerp, managing director at Deloitte, discussed how social determinants of health and a personalized member experience can improve medication adherence and health outcomes.
Cureatr
Cureatr is the nation’s fastest-growing mobile care coordination solution for healthcare providers, allowing team members to send secure messages and receive actionable alerts about their patients in real time.
Joseph Mayer, M.D., Cureatr CEO, will be speaking on the panel, How Healthcare Will Support Startups: In Dollars & Beyond.
Docsap
Docsap is a web-based application that makes it easier for patients to find primary care practices that offer affordable monthly subscription plans for unlimited care. Patients can use Docsap to compare the pricing and benefits between different plans and choose the one that’s right for them.
GenomOncology
GenomOncology is enabling precision medicine by translating next generation sequencing data into actionable information. The company’s GO Clinical WorkbenchTM translates the molecular profile of a patient’s tumor genome into an actionable clinical report and the GenomAnalyticsTM research platform allows the simultaneous analysis of one or hundreds of genomes to look for causal variants of cancer.
GenomOncology President and CEO, Manuel Glynias, will be part of the panel, The Latest Implementations of Personalized Medicine.

HealthQx
HealthQx delivers a first-of-its-kind solution that rates physicians and hospitals based on quality and cost efficiency using data on over 120 million patients. HealthQx delivers analytics and software to payers, providers and our partners who are leading the shift from fee-for-service payment to transparent, value-based healthcare.
Medivizor
When people cope with serious or chronic illness, they, or someone who cares for them, often become “chronic web researchers.” The process of finding relevant, trustworthy and understandable information is extremely ineffective and inefficient. Medivizor’s award-winning service uniquely allows people to better engage with the health information that matters to them.
Owlpal
Owlpal is a proactive mobile health solution that diagnoses, stages, and monitors asthma in children at night. Owlpal functions as a smart device application that utilizes the internal acoustic capabilities of an Android or iOS device to monitor wheezing and coughing rates within children as they sleep.
Resuscor
Resuscor strives to improve implementation of Targeted Temperature Management (TTM) to save lives and improve patient outcomes from critical illnesses such as cardiac arrest. Resuscor offers a suite of digital educational products aimed at clinicians in the emergency room, intensive care and first responders.
