Programs and results

What we aim to solve

SOURCE: Self-reported by organization

Our healthcare system is fragmented, difficult to navigate and designed to fight disease and offer “parts care” rather than to serve the well-being of the whole person. The many silos that exist – including specialization, payor limitations, societal factors, and access to quality care that exist within the traditional doctor-patient relationship make a whole-person approach to care unlikely without radical intervention. Additionally, the proliferation of wellness websites, healthcare apps and devices create confusion, and the likelihood that patients forfeit control of their data for the financial benefit of others. Project Apollo is designing programs to integrate care and put educated, empowered patients in charge.

Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

Today's healthcare system is fragmented and challenging to navigate – especially for people with chronic, undiagnosed or challenging medical conditions. But with technology plus informed self-study Precision Healthcare Ecosystem (PHE) can revolutionize our "sick care" system and enable people to focus on wellness. PHE is developing programs, processes and tools that leverage wearable technology and education to enable patients to understand their data and be empowered to act. PHE incorporates a mind/body/spirit (Bio/Psycho/Social) model of the individual, family and community. Project Apollo enables patients with an alternative, empowered approach to care which can used by motivated people, regardless of their health conditions, means or backgrounds. In addition to its patient, researcher and clinical core, PHE includes business, education and healthcare advisors. PHE is patient-led, helping patients to communicate their "lived experience" of their conditions.

We are primarily focused on developing tools to enable patients to conduct valid self-study and visualize their health journeys, in order to better communicate with healthcare providers. These tools include self-study protocols and tools to create a timeline of their journey which incorporates symptoms, life events, traumas and medical treatments.

– Development of a scalable, web-based tool kit, that can be offered either on a fee-for-service basis or as a licensing model to disease-specific groups seeking to enhance their member experience. This kit is expected to include: an education module (to better prepare patients for self-study); self-awareness exercises (to focus awareness of patients' own knowledge and personal biases); links to interpretation support (to review patient-generated data); and implementation support (linked to turning research information into actionable wellness plans).

– Development of Focus Groups, which would make available a cohort of trained, willing patients, on a shared-revenue, data-protected basis, and operating under peer-review (IRB), to provide early feedback to companies developing new, innovative health devices or apps.

– Development of online training programs which can make Project Apollo's educational modules available to the public-at-large.

– Seeking to secure philanthropic funding to advance ongoing research methods and processes, and to provide scholarships for testing and unreimbursed treatment for financially challenged patients.

We are currently in R&D mode, testing our Bio/Psycho/Social framework for use across a wide spectrum of health conditions. We are also working with researchers on a timeline tool for our toolkit. Our current cohort of patients have formed numerous self-study groups to support their explorations. We meet virtually on a monthly basis to support the community at large.

Balance sheet

Fiscal Year: Jan 01 - Dec 31

SOURCE: IRS Form 990 info

The balance sheet gives a snapshot of the financial health of an organization at a particular point in time. An organization's total assets should generally exceed its total liabilities, or it cannot survive long, but the types of assets and liabilities must also be considered. For instance, an organization's current assets (cash, receivables, securities, etc.) should be sufficient to cover its current liabilities (payables, deferred revenue, current year loan, and note payments). Otherwise, the organization may face solvency problems. On the other hand, an organization whose cash and equivalents greatly exceed its current liabilities might not be putting its money to best use.
