U.S.A., Jan. 31, 2022 - Olive, the automation company creating the Internet of Healthcare, today announced the winners of the first-ever Hack for Health contest. In partnership with Rotera, Olive held the contest to encourage developers to build Loops (think apps in an app store) that will change the way healthcare employees work by improving efficiency, reducing the scope for errors and burnout, and enhancing productivity — all to optimize the patient experience.
Olive designed its Hack for Health contest to solve healthcare’s biggest problems through collaboration with the developer community. Participation is open to any individual developer, startup, health system, or enterprise technology company. Winning Loop submissions are published on Olive’s platform, giving developers full access to Olive’s growing payer-provider network. While any developer who publishes a loop on Olive’s platform receives 85% of the revenue generated from their Loop(s) once published, Hack for Health grand prize winners also receive tiered cash prizes up to $10,000, industry speaking engagement opportunities, a 60-minute pitch meeting with the Olive Ventures team, an Oculus Quest 2, YubiKey, and a 30” curved monitor. Olive also provides opportunities for its employees to develop Loops as part of an internal contest with its own set of prizes. “Olive created healthcare’s first true platform. We wanted to create an event that encouraged a wide range of developers to come build on it to grow our ecosystem of people working together to transform healthcare,” said Patrick Jones, Executive Vice President, Partnerships at Olive. “Our first-ever Hack for Health contest, in partnership with Rotera, was the perfect way to introduce developers of all sizes to Olive and create new solutions that will help change the way healthcare workers work.” Olive selected the following five Loops as the grand prize winners based on their functionality, innovation, outcome improvement, and bettering of diversity, equity, and inclusion among underrepresented healthcare workers and patients:
