This IQP addresses the problems in the US cardiovascular health industry, specific to the disease known as Coronary Artery Disease. Our goals are to conduct a thorough need analysis of the industry and gain a better understanding of why Coronary Artery Disease is the top killer in the US and costs to the tune of $200 billion. We executed this by identifying the age demographic that has unmet needs, getting expert knowledge on the disease and industry and coming up with hypotheses on integrating the power of artificial intelligence with the current medical system. We can summarize that the key needs are centered around cost, prevention, the nature of CAD and data collection. Our recommendation to address these needs is a risk-analysis system with A.I integration.
