About CareVanta

Built from a real need. Designed for real decisions.

CareVanta didn’t start as a business idea.
It started with urgency.

One of our close friends faced an overwhelming situation: both of their parents needed hip replacement surgery, and fast. What followed was confusion, stress, and a stark realization. The information patients are told to rely on exists, but it’s fragmented, technical, and nearly impossible to interpret under pressure.

Which surgeon has real experience with this exact procedure?
Which hospital consistently delivers better outcomes?
How far would you need to travel for better care?

There were no clear answers when it mattered most.

That moment became the inspiration for CareVanta.

Doctor consulting with two elderly parents and their adult daughter about hip replacement surgery in a hospital clinic.

From Capstone to Working Proof of Concept.

What began as a Quantic MSBA capstone project quickly grew into something more. We believed the need was real, urgent, and solvable.

So we built a functional, data-driven prototype that transforms publicly available Medicare data into clear, patient-centered guidance.

CareVanta is a working proof of concept, not a slide deck:
- A live decision-support experience
- Real CMS datasets
- Real scoring logic
- Real geographic filtering
- A focused MVP starting with total hip replacement

This foundation is intentionally designed for scalability across procedures, regions, and user groups.

Healthcare data transformed into a decision-support dashboard with hospital locations and geographic filtering.

What CareVanta Does

CareVanta helps patients make better surgical decisions by bringing clarity to complex healthcare data.

Our platform combines:

Surgeon experience
Procedure-specific volume as a proxy for expertise
Hospital quality
Composite scores derived from mortality, readmissions, and safety metrics
Geographic relevance
Searchable by location to balance quality and proximity

The result is a clear, comparative view that helps patients and caregivers move forward with confidence.

Why This Matters

Every year, millions of patients undergo elective surgeries without meaningful insight into the quality differences between providers. Outcomes can vary dramatically based on surgeon experience and hospital performance, yet that information remains largely inaccessible to the people who need it most.

CareVanta bridges that gap by:

Turning open healthcare data into understandable insights
Supporting informed, patient-centered decision-making
Demonstrating the real-world value of transparent, ethical data use

Built by a Cross-Disciplinary Team

CareVanta brings together healthcare, analytics, strategy, and go-to-market expertise.
