DHIT provides the infrastructure for a shared journey to drive digital health transformation and improve public health. As a community, we do this by:

“HUGs solve one of the most critical problems facing equitable healthcare today – a transparent, unbiased, individually-owned and protected health data infrastructure capable of being the next major public utility, no different than gas, water, or electricity. One of the most costly issues facing society today is the lack of access to real-time, real-world data pertaining to drivers of health, and the lack of shared insights from that data between healthcare providers and community services. Our vision is to give every community around the world a HUG.”

Michael Levy  |  Chief Executive Officer, DHIT Global

DHIT’s Community HUG platform engages stakeholders across the ecosystem, including patients, students, researchers, healthcare providers, local employers, and local government, by uniting them to a common purpose (making their community the healthiest place to live, work and raise a family) whilst realigning incentives and motivations to create win-win collaborations.
