Our story
Healthbridge was started in 1999 with the explicit purpose of transforming healthcare and enhancing people’s lives by democratisation of information.
Healthcare is an information-intensive industry, involving complex interactions between different parties, ranging from medical professionals and patients to medical aids and healthcare stakeholders. We manage this constant flow of information between the various parties to help medical professionals streamline their practice processes.
Our priority is to help medical professionals run good businesses so that they are freed up to focus on their patients. As the pioneer of real-time claim processing in the early 2000s, we have continued to innovate to provide solutions that automate, streamline and simplify the daily tasks of a medical practice.
