UMBRA Health a Georgia registered company founded in April 2014 and is based in Roswell, Georgia, USA. UMBRA Health is a Health Information Technology company (Health IT) that addresses the challenges of interoperability in healthcare. The company's software "Lifeography" is a patent pending technology that is focused on pediatric patients and their parents. The lack of interoperability creates significant issues in health care and is partly responsible for a 1000 deaths and 10,000 injuries a day as a result of medical errors. The reason is that medical data is fragmented and distributed in silos in provider offices, pharmacies, hospitals, clinics etc. and the problem continues to get worse as more sources for healthcare open-up to patients. When a new born baby sees their pediatrician for the first time they already have 3 separate health records. The OB who birthed the child, the hospital where it was delivered and a new one is created when the pediatrician seeing them for the first time.
