Providing awards totaling $250,000 to inspire and nurture the best solutions to improve patient transitions from hospital to home
The Janssen Connected Care Challenge is looking for approaches that will improve the patient’s transition from hospital to home. This challenge is designed to spur innovation and drive action towards achieving better care and better health at lower cost through continuous improvement.
They want to hear about solutions to improve the coordination of care as patients are discharged after surgery or other inpatient stays. It is an issue that vexes our healthcare system, burdens our federal healthcare programs, and most importantly, negatively impact individual's lives. Janssen Healthcare Innovation will award a total of $250,000 to entrepreneurs with the best solutions for improving care transitions. Submissions will be reviewed by a panel of distinguished visionaries and practitioners in the areas of innovation, technology, care transitions and healthcare who have agreed to act as judges for the contest. Members of the Janssen Healthcare Innovation team will provide the three finalists mentorship and support to further advance commercial development of the best ideas that address our challenge.
