Glya
Across Latin America, chronic care is centered on episodic visits and hospital-based interventions, leaving providers with limited visibility into patients’ daily health and making it difficult to detect risks early and prevent avoidable complications.
A patient-centred model for chronic care
Glya is transforming chronic disease management from a reactive, episodic model into a continuous, patient-centred care journey. Co-founded by Ximena Ruget, whose leadership reflects determination and a deep understanding of systemic barriers, Glya was created to democratise access to better chronic care across Latin America. Drawing on both global experience and local realities, the company helps healthcare institutions move beyond crisis-driven care and support patients every day, closer to where life actually happens: at home.
Proactive care through real-time patient insights
Glya gives healthcare providers real-time visibility into patients’ health between consultations, enabling earlier intervention, stronger treatment adherence, and more personalised care. Its platform combines proprietary IoT technology that connects to home medical devices, AI-driven conversational agents, and predictive analytics to identify subtle changes in health patterns before they become emergencies.
Designed specifically for the realities of chronic care in Latin America, Glya uses WhatsApp as its primary engagement channel, making it accessible to patients with limited digital literacy and increasing long-term participation. By integrating real-time patient-generated data into clinical decision-making, Glya empowers both healthcare professionals and patients to take a more proactive approach to chronic disease management.
