Hari Prasad grew up in Madras, India and moved to a small town in West Virginia to go to school at age 19. From there he focused on healthcare economics and held a series of jobs where he analyzed the patient journey and created the infrastructure for success under accountable care.
But the idea for Yosi Health https://yosi.health/ came from his own experience. After dislocating his shoulder he had the very painful experience of filling out all sorts of paperwork before being seen. Ouch!
Yosi --which means 'awareness' or 'think'-- was created to improve the front end experience for patients and providers. The results --reduced patient no shows, higher collection rates, and improved online reputation-- are attractive to practices that generally provide great care coupled with poor customer service.
