PRORADIS: Streamlining and Simplifying Technological Incorporation in Healthcare

Technology has been a great facilitator for the healthcare industry to pivot during challenging times. During the COVID-19 global pandemic, it helped connect and deliver healthcare as well as healthcare-related facilities at the doorstep of countless individuals. However, irrespective of its broad use, the technology requires certain simplification and easy-to-navigate features in order to streamline its accessibility for more individuals without much effort or time.

In 2013, Eduardo Alvarez (Founder and CEO) founded PRORADIS to transform the healthcare diagnostics market through the alliance between technology and simplicity of use. Eduardo identified the need to develop and connect technologies to promote health efficiently and with quality for all people. He was inspired to expand and transform the performance of clinics, laboratories, and hospitals in various remote places in the country by harmoniously connecting health and technology and shortening the physical distance between doctors and patients. With PRORADIS, Eduardo seeks to leverage high technology combined with the simplicity of use.

To date, PRORADIS has established successful partnerships with large companies that have helped it expand its services and reach new markets.

In July 2021, the company expanded its operations by acquiring LaborLIS (a company focused on providing technology for the clinical analysis market) complementing its portfolio to serve the entire diagnostic medicine market. The acquisition placed PRORADIS as one of the more relevant full providers in diagnostic for health in this market. Currently, the company is available in more than 1.200 healthcare establishments, serving customers throughout the country as well as some countries in Latin America and Europe.

Analyzing Technology and Digitalization

Telemedicine was a technology that gained utmost relevance and momentum as a result of the pandemic. With physicians working remotely, it was essential to work with a platform that would allow them to continue to report remotely. In this scenario, the main challenge faced was breaking paradigms and barriers to using the platform. However, the technology had a good acceptance in the market, and PRORADIS has been growing in this line, presenting an average growth of 10% per month in the sale of this software.

In the past few years, the pandemic has accelerated the health segment and boosted the creation of new tools and processes. The movement towards digitalization in other sectors created an expectation of technological innovations in health services as well. As a result, 2022 becomes the year in which several trends began to emerge in the health sector. These include the use of artificial intelligence and predictive analytics to improve exam results and the availability of digital tools and platforms to offer more agility and convenience to patients. Technology will be key to differentiating companies in the market and offering a more comprehensive experience focused on the patient’s journey.

Steering through Major Hurdles

Since its inception, PRORADIS has encountered various challenges. However, the company has encompassed every challenge with a creative approach and holistic vision. For PRORADIS, the most difficult challenge was adapting and reinventing itself to the new scenario during the pandemic. Despite the team working from home, the company had to keep everyone engaged and productive as it required to keep developing new systems and adapting the current ones to the new market needs. In addition to seeking new investors in the market during this period, PRORADIS also had to deal with the default of some customers, an economic factor that several companies faced during this period. Irrespective of numerous challenges, the team reacted very well. In fact, owing to their contribution, PRORADIS was able to double its size during the pandemic period.
