About

Health technology made in Australia

Founded in Melbourne in 2016, EVEDA is a health platform for the early detection and management of chronic disease, and for population health management. Designed and manufactured in Australia.

Why EVEDA exists

Why we started EVEDA

EVEDA was built to offer screening for the early signs of chronic disease, close to where people live and work. HubX is portable, so a health check can happen at work, in the community or in a remote clinic. People can share their results with their GP through Health Passport.

Our mission

Earlier screening, closer to people

EVEDA takes screening to the person, from a corporate office to a remote community.

The EVEDA platform includes a point-of-care device, clinical software, a personal health record and population analytics. The clinical team can follow up each result.

EVEDA works alongside the healthcare system and gives clinicians earlier information about chronic disease risk.
