Artificial intelligence (AI) continues to revolutionize the field of healthcare in the UK. Flok Health, the country's first AI-powered physiotherapy clinic, is enabling NHS patients to access same-day video call appointments for back pain. The clinic has received regulatory approval as a healthcare provider and has developed a proprietary new domain-specific programming language to automate decision-making.
Flok Health aims to address the issue of long waiting lists for musculoskeletal (MSK) physiotherapy in the UK. They have raised a £2 million seed round in 2022 and have successfully completed trials with NHS Trusts. With their AI-powered clinics, Flok Health plans to expand into other common health conditions and launch new services later this year [c75daffd].
