While there is a long list of startups that are using modern technology to improve healthcare and education -- to make us healthier and more effective teachers and learners -- many are still shying away from some of the most challenging technical problems. Not that this comes as a surprise, as both industries suffer from some intractable legacy infrastructure. Modernizing the infrastructures themselves, along with the way health companies integrate and exchange data is a difficult task. Eligible, a San Francisco-based startup and member of Y Combinator's most recent batch, is meeting this challenge head on. Big data is transforming healthcare (and education), and Eligible has set out to build a modern, standardized set of protocols to make it more accessible. A member of the same YC class as Clever, Eligible is applying the very same philosophy of its classmate to healthcare -- to pulling down the barriers that restrict its interoperability, making it easier to manage and integrate.
