Summary of Programme:

In the UK, language barriers leave millions unable to access NHS care safely and equally. Misunderstandings cause delayed treatment, medication errors, and missed appointments, costing the NHS over £100 million annually. Our project was inspired by a tragic story: a young cancer patient who passed away after his parents could not understand English appointment instructions.

ORBIS is an end-to-end, privacy-first healthcare solution:
· Multilingual Medical Passport: Supports 5 languages. It processes medical documents via local PII redaction, OCR, medical-grade translation, and AI structuring to generate a standardized English health passport, exportable as PDF.
· Safe NHS Navigator: A compliant chatbot based only on official NHS content. It provides guidance on appointments and rights — never diagnosis or treatment — and supports voice input for low-digital-literacy users.

Key technical highlights:
· Built a secure pipeline: Google Vision OCR → local PII redaction → DeepL medical translation → Gemini extraction
· Dual “peer-review” translation with DeepL + Gemini to ensure clinical accuracy and safety
· Three-layer guardrails for the chatbot to eliminate unsafe medical advice
· Supabase row-level security, in-memory processing, cascade delete, and full UK GDPR & NHS compliance

Within the hackathon, we delivered a fully working MVP, business model, market sizing, roadmap, and risk framework. Surveys with clinicians and refugees 100% validated the real-world need.

This is far more than a demo. Our roadmap includes NGO pilots in London, NHS ICS partnerships, and scaling to a national UK healthcare inclusion ecosystem. We believe equity starts with everyone understanding their own health.
