When a friend’s mother developed infections upon consecutive hospital visits, an idea was born to assist in verifying every clinical procedure using digital technology. A previous career in a highly regulated business environment provided Ernest with the technical know-how.

Having lost close friends, 19 and 34 years old, from routine hospital stays, and not to mention her years of experience as RN at Southern California hospitals, Marie was inspired to co-found a Health IT enterprise.
