CareBridge AI: A Unified Web-Based Healthcare Assistance Platform

Healthcare-support information is often spread across separate services for treatment-cost planning, government assistance discovery, hospital location search, and medical-document review. This can make navigation difficult for patients and families, particularly those seeking affordable care. This paper presents CareBridge AI, a web-based prototype that organizes selected healthcare-support functions in one interface. Developed using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, the prototype provides interfaces for medical-bill information, a funding-gap calculator, medical-report text review, scheme discovery, a hospital finder, and chat-style support. The funding-gap module estimates the remaining amount from user-entered treatment cost, available funds, expected assistance, and other contributions. The current implementation uses browser-side logic and demonstration storage. It does not demonstrate a trained or clinically validated AI/ML model, a production-grade patient database, or an IoT deployment. A qualitative comparison identifies integration and navigation as the main design opportunity. A proposed evaluation plan covers calculation correctness, official-link validity, usability, privacy, and future AI validation. No clinical or performance improvement is claimed without measured testing.
