Telehealth & Remote Patient Monitoring

Healthcare

Remote health and wellness monitoring is transforming healthcare through the power of mobile cloud computing and the Internet of Things. Recent policy changes during the COVID-19 pandemic have reduced barriers to telehealth and remote patient monitoring (RPM), and have promoted the use of telehealth as a way to deliver acute, chronic, primary and specialty care. By leveraging the medical data collected from medical devices, sensors, implant devices, and wearables, a patient’s well-being can be monitored in real-time between home, hospital, and beyond.

Today’s Challenges

One-third of adults live with more than one chronic condition improving patient triage to determine and evaluate risk, reduce non-emergent office visits and remotely monitor patients addressing the surge in demand for self-care devices/solutions Shifting patients to lower-cost settings

 

Desired Outcomes

Decrease the risk of infection exposure for doctors, staff, and patients increase access for patients living in rural areas remotely monitor the vitals of post-surgery patients in real-time improve patient experience and care satisfaction reduce readmissions and overall healthcare cost
