Are You At Risk

Buoy Health, a Boston-based startup and MassChallenge HealthTech 2019 alum, has developed an AI health assistant application that helps consumers get real-time information about symptoms and triages them to the appropriate care. 

"In light of the coronavirus outbreak, the startup [updated] its AI algorithm to properly screen for coronavirus. Learn more about the work they are doing to combat the coronavirus."

Buoy has entered a partnership with the state of Massachusetts to promote Telehealth services and provide its residents with additional tools to assess their risks for COVID-19. The Baker Administration announced the launch of Buoy Health’s new online resource for residents to check their symptoms and connect with the appropriate health-care resource.

It is important to note that the tool does not replace emergency medical care. However, the application may be used as a support for residents during the COVID-19 outbreak to connect them. Buoy Health’s online 24/7 tool is free for Massachusetts residents and uses current COVID-19 guidance from the CDC and Massachusetts Department of Public Health. Visit Buoy.com/mass to learn more and use the tool.

All of us here at SERVPRO of Newton / Wellesley want you and your loved ones to stay safe and know that we will make it through this together!
