Accelerating Access To Medical Care and Nonclinical Resources For Children In Need In the United States and Around the World

THE CRITICAL PROBLEM

Millions of children globally are suffering because they have no access to pediatric healthcare resources. Children are dying in the time that it takes to connect them to existing medical, surgical, rehabilitative and essential non-clinical resources necessary for their well-being. There has been no socially impactful initiative to systematize and coordinate these resources…until now.

IT’S ABOUT TIME

Confronting the critical problem, GCF has partnered with a team of innovators at Microsoft, collaborating with Microsoft Tech for Social Impact/Microsoft Philanthropies—to evolve and scale up the existing model into the Children’s Resource Exchange (CRE). The CRE is an emerging state of the art pediatric healthcare service and a centerpiece for a global health strategy that will help save the lives of children worldwide…scaling the solution to the magnitude of the problem. 

 

The CRE’s unique integration of human conscientiousness and technology will accelerate access to vital healthcare resources through a digital platform, leveraging its network of care, expertise and funding. GCF and its partners in healing are collaborating to modernize the process of coordinating care between medical professionals and others who play an instrumental role in providing full circle access for children in need. The CRE digital service will facilitate the coordination of resources for children suffering from debilitating but treatable diseases, traumatic injuries, congenital birth anomalies and mental health conditions.

In time, as case information increases, AI automated processes will be able to analyze the needs of children, find patterns across similar past cases, summarize each child’s story and target messages to particular pediatric specialists, aiding physicians in providing diagnostics and treatments, all within a secure compliant platform.

These processes will be accelerated through the use of generative AI (GenAI) in the initial version of the application, and ultimately the processes themselves can be orchestrated by Agentic AI. In these future processes, AI agents will play general orchestration roles (e.g. working tirelessly to perform deep research on a child’s case, and then outlining the steps that need to be taken to help them). Then, more specialized agent roles will take on specific laborious tasks and other steps to help with each component of a child’s case. Relationship building with children, caregivers, and partners-in-healing will continue to be critical to the function of these technologies, even as they scale the manual steps within the processes.

The CRE platform aims to be the go-to resource for pediatric healthcare—dedicated to children who wait.
