Company Background

CareData Trak is a clinical decision support software company founded in 2006 by owner and CEO, Dexter Klock, D.Sc., P.E. The company originated from a 2004-2006 research study designed to computerize paper-based tests and screening for common geriatric syndromes in seniors.

Through rigorous evaluation by a team of physicians and testing in an assisted living community, CareData Trak’s e-screening tool was found to have a positive impact on the quality of life for the elderly. By using computer-based interviewing on kiosks or tablet computers, syndromes can be identified which were not previously known by an individual or their healthcare professional.

CareData Trak has delivered projects for The Institute for Optimal Aging of Brookdale Senior Living, the Merck Institute on Aging and Health, the Peninsula Agency on Aging, the Center for Excellence in Aging and Geriatric Health, the Department of Social Services and Department of Health for Fairfax County, Virginia and the Virginia Department of Corrections.

CareData Trak continues to innovate with its unique and flexible design to impact the transformation of the healthcare industry in which technology helps patients become more engaged and ownership-driven while reducing cost for both themselves and their healthcare providers.
