ith healthcare reform, nurses are asked to<br />

“ Wsee more people; do more,” says Daniel<br />

Godla, the man behind Thoroughcare.<br />

Godla, originally from Pittsburgh, has<br />

lived in Philadelphia for the past eight years before coming<br />

to Spartanburg for Iron Yard, where he’s been impressed at<br />

how much the local medical community of Spartanburg has<br />

supported Godla and Thoroughcare.<br />

“They really want this to succeed in Spartanburg.”<br />

Iron Yard has been perfect fit for Godla, because of<br />

the focus on healthcare and the availability of experienced<br />

mentors to help the entrepreneurs along.<br />

Thoroughcare is a software designed to be give<br />

fast and accurate diagnosis and is designed to go<br />

deeper than any current survey software out currently.<br />

“This is the TurboTax of healthcare,” says Godla.<br />

By using a guided interview style of surveying a<br />

patient, it works with a nurse’s workflow to help them<br />

meet the increasing number of patients, yet still remain<br />

accurate with a diagnosis.<br />

At this point, Thoroughcare is in the product development<br />

phase. Once a prototype is developed, Godla wants to get it<br />

into hospitals for testing. He’s excited for nurses to be able<br />

to implement the systems and see if it makes their jobs easier<br />

when initially talking to patients.<br />

After that, Godla eventually wants to take it to Silicon<br />

Valley, hoping to establish contacts with other CEOs and get<br />

the product into the hands of more companies to get more<br />

exposure and feedback.<br />

“It’s hard to do on your own…meet with the CEO<br />

of another company…that type of introduction makes it<br />

much easier.”
