Accelerating Autism Assessments for Children
Paloma Health, a UK-based start-up, has received £2 million in funding to revolutionize autism diagnostics for children. With current waiting times often exceeding two years, the company aims to leverage technology and AI to provide a more efficient and streamlined assessment process.
Key Highlights:
- Advanced AI Integration: By employing AI algorithms, Paloma Health is able to analyze behavioral data and clinical indicators swiftly, significantly reducing diagnosis time to just four weeks.
- Addressing the Backlog: This initiative seeks to tackle the current backlog, ensuring timely access to developmental support for children in need.
- Impact on Families: Faster assessments mean reduced stress for families, earlier interventions, and better outcomes for children.
Paloma Health’s innovative approach not only improves efficiency but also promotes equity in accessing vital diagnostic services for autism.
