About Wellacopia
- Our mission: better healthcare relationships for better healthcare outcomes
- Our proprietary algorithm: matches users by collecting personalized data on both sides - preferences in approach to care, communication, personality, experience, etc. in addition to applying the typical insurance/location/specialty filters.
- Our users: patients with difficult chronic conditions (highly overlooked population) and telemedicine-based practitioners (due to significant lack of care available to these patients in remote areas)
