I'm an Emergency Physician and the Product Founder at Evercred where we automate the credentialing and identity management process so physicians can work and move freely.Healthcare is the fastest growing sector in the US with over 20M employees, yet systems face excessive turnover due to dissatisfaction. With HPEC the physician is in control of their digitized and automatically verified credentials that allow them to onboard to systems or open and collaborate with colleagues to build their own individual private practices without the friction of currently available legacy driven credentialing systems.As a company we have two interoperable products:1.) HPEC is the physician-facing mobile application that serves as a decentralized identity and credential wallet as well as a digital guild for the physician community. Physicians are the credential holders and the creators of authentic healthcare data and this allows them to own and control their professional identity and data. Physicians can also advocate, communicate and govern themselves in the in app social and governance space. They can also connect and collaborate with other verified and credentialed physicians to build their own independent physician referral networks in order to get their patients the best care.2.) Evercred is the institution facing credential issuing and data management software used by credential issuers and verifiers. Evercred issues practicing physicians their digital credentials creating perpetual and automated permanent primary source credential verification in a secure-trusted, and decentralized way. The Evercred system automates employment and workforce mobility for practicing physicians and provides a foundational framework for the trusted authentic healthcare data ecosystems of the future.Previously I practiced as an Emergency Physician across the US for ~10 years. Observing how poorly our system runs, afforded me a deep understanding of the problems in our systeem, the barriers we face to correction, and the need for a decentralized solution. I am a nationally requested speaker and author on the topic of self-sovereign identity in healthcare, and have training in Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare through MIT.We are ready to automate and unload the most friction filled administrative processes to unburden physicians and get them back to doing only what they were meant to do: provide the best direct and personalized patient care!
