Cara Care aims to support every person in the world with a gastrointestinal disease with the first therapeutic digital companion for digestive care. Our platform combines the power of UX, UI, Data Science, Marketing, Tech, Medicine, Business, and Psychology to shape the user experience and provide the first evidence-based, digital therapy for digestive health. To date, Cara Care has helped more than 650,000 people across Germany and the United States manage digestive diseases with over a 78% success rate.
How it works
By downloading the Cara Care app, individuals can choose from three medical devices to receive support for conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome (Cara Care for IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (Cara Care for IBD), or heartburn-related indications (Cara Care for Heartburn). With Cara Care for IBS being approved by the German Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical Devices as a digital health application, individuals are now able to profit from the first reimbursable digital IBS therapeutic. All three medical devices make use of a guideline-based algorithm in order to set up a personalized 12-week intervention program with the aim to alleviate symptoms. Individuals have access to medically approved treatment measures such as dietary therapy, gut-directed hypnosis, and cognitive-behavioral therapy. The program also entails a digital food and symptom log which helps to identify individual trigger factors.
The digital therapeutics Cara Care offers a holistic approach that is fuelled by the (scientifically backed) belief that any GI condition is highly influenced by factors such as diet but also mental health. This concept puts the affected individual into focus: By providing individualized self-management instructions that take account of user characteristics. Patients are empowered to avail of a therapy that they personally profit from the most.
The Market
According to the Massachusetts Medical Society, gastrointestinal diseases cost $136 billion annually in healthcare expenditures, more than heart disease and trauma in annual costs. Tens of millions of individuals deal with gut issues, and there is a huge gap between those who seek GI help and those who suffer. Digital therapeutics is a part of the next wave in healthcare, and mobile software can have a significant therapeutic effect on patients. According to the U.S. National Library of Medicine, point-of-care tools such as applications on smartphones have been shown to support better clinical decision-making and improved patient outcomes. Offering a mobile product gives users a more convenient and comfortable way of tackling their health issues.
