QRepublik: Smart Medical Identifiers. A System for Health and Longevity
https://qrepublik.com
QRepublik is a comprehensive solution for emergency medical identification. The technology addresses the issue of the lack of information about a person in an emergency to help them and provides an easy way to access, store and manage information. A medical profile can be accessed anytime, anywhere with wristbands, sticker sets and watch attachments.
PROBLEM ADDRESSED
30 % of people over 60 fall at least once a year, and about 54 % get serious injuries. Almost half of the injuries from falls result in impaired quality of life, and 95 % of injuries must be operated on within 24 to 48 hours, according to the WHO and the Russian Ministry of Health.
People with disabilities, people with chronic diseases (circulatory disorders, cancer, chronic respiratory diseases, diabetes), children, the elderly, athletes, tourists — anyone can find themselves in a life-threatening situation, where every second counts, and doctors need to get complete information about the person affected to provide quality care. The QRepublik medical identifiers save lives in critical situations, when a person has suffered an accident, is unconscious, or cannot speak. By scanning a QR code, the doctors get important information on any allergies the patient may have, what medicines they take, what diseases they have, their blood type, and their relatives’ contact information.
METHODS USED TO ADDRESS THE PROBLEM
The Medical Identification System includes three technological solutions.
1. Aid Wristband non-electronic identifier is a medical identification tool for an emergency situation that provides an easy way to access, store and manage a user’s medical information.
2. Alarm Button Service. The button can be installed at an elderly person’s residence, for a quick contact with a social worker, a caregiver, or emergency services.
3. QDP Service collects information about the patient’s health status and processes the data using AI to predict the possible development of diseases, such as hypertension, congestive heart failure and diabetes.

SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC IMPACT
According to our calculations, with the introduction of the Emergency Situation Identification System based on the Aid Wristbands and the Alarm Button Service, the annual commercial revenue for the social services units could be up to 151 million rubles in 2023 and 233.5 million rubles in 2024 per 30,000 people, respectively, not including a decrease in the load on the public health facilities.
FINANCIAL SUSTAINABILITY MODEL
The first income item on the SaaS (Software as a Service) model is the subscription fee to an extended personal account, doctors’ consultations, and the disease prediction service.
The second income item is the production and sale of medical identifiers and alarm buttons.
The third income item is working with the B2B market.
