The care situation for neurodivergent adults in Germany is characterized by massive underprovision and structural deficits. vianova eHealth addresses this market problem with a state-of-the-art platform solution for hybrid, digital-analog care.
• Prevalence and patient numbers: In Germany, approximately 2.0 million adults are affected by ADHD (prevalence about 2.5%). At the same time, about 800,000 to 1.6 million adults live with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD, prevalence 1-2%).
• The comorbid overlap: Clinical reality shows a huge overlap: At least 25% of ADHD patients have an ASD comorbidity, while conversely, up to 80% of autistic adults also meet the criteria for ADHD. This concerns a core target group of several hundred thousand people who need highly specialized differential diagnostics.
• Dramatic underprovision: Less than 25% of affected adults have a confirmed diagnosis. The result is a years-long odyssey through the healthcare system with frequent misdiagnoses (e.g., depression, borderline).
• Systemic barriers: The current care situation is characterized by massive bottlenecks with waiting times of 12 to 24 months for a diagnostic appointment, as well as a glaring shortage of specialized professionals for adults.
vianova eHealth fills this gap through continuous patient care that radically simplifies, accelerates, and improves access to diagnostics and therapy.
