KURA Care
Company Brief
We live in an era of unprecedented health data — accurate, continuous, and ubiquitous. Medical devices and wearables stream millions of data points to care team dashboards and patient devices every second. Yet despite this abundance, care teams and patients still struggle to translate data into timely, effective decisions. The missing piece is context: the story behind each abnormal data point that explains why it happened.
That last mile is what KURA Care is building.
KURA Care is a digital health company that applies behavioral science and artificial intelligence to bridge the gap between raw health data and meaningful clinical action. Its core capability — contextual data enrichment — enables care teams to act more efficiently and empowers patients to achieve lasting behavior change.
KURA Care's platform has been clinically validated through a randomized controlled trial demonstrating significant reductions in rehospitalization rates among cardiac patients, alongside measurable improvements in exercise adherence, medication compliance, and blood pressure control. Critically, outcomes persist beyond the program period, reflecting genuine habit formation rather than temporary compliance. The platform addresses a broad range of chronic conditions, including congestive heart failure, general cardiac disease, chronic kidney disease (CKD), and stroke.
With over nine peer-reviewed publications presented at major American medical societies and active deployment within U.S. health insurance programs, KURA Care is translating clinical evidence into real-world population health impact.
