HEALTHCARE CAPACITY
Neurological health is the #1 cause of disability worldwide*
The surging demand for neurological diagnosis and treatment exceeds the capacity of the healthcare system. The imbalance will continue to accelerate driven by an aging population with increased social isolation.
In the United States alone, the cost of treating neurological patients is approaching $1T annually**.
The shortage of neurologists (1 per 23,259 people) is a “grave threat”*** as the supply has remained relatively constant.
In addition to the provider shortage, sub-optimal workflows and ineffective therapeutic options further constrain patient throughput.
