The platform is HIPAA compliant and provides end to end encrypted communication. It is also integrated with the following devices:
The MedSys platform is designed to ensure an easy and seamless experience ensuring patients get the care they need irrespective of their conditions or their ability to use technology.
Our remote care technology keeps care teams informed of patient progress by delivering timely updates and actionable insights which in turn lead to timely intervention, faster recovery times and better patient outcomes.
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
COPD is the third leading cause of death worldwide and has a 30-day readmission rate of 22.6%.
Oxygen saturation, respiratory rate and heart rate are useful biomarkers for remote monitoring. Measurement of these biomarkers has helped improve patients’ ability to self-manage thus leading to a reduction in COPD’s economic and clinical burden.
Chronic lung disease is projected to cost $50 billion annually with lost productivity amounting to 16 million work days per year.
Congestive Heart Failure (CHF)
CHF affects nearly 6 million Americans and is the leading cause of hospitalization in the elderly population. As one of the most expensive chronic diseases to treat, the cost of heart failure interventions in the United States is estimated to be around $30 billion annually.
Studies published in the National Center for Biotechnology list cardiovascular disease as the leading cause of hospitalization in the United states, accounting for nearly one in three deaths for a total of 380,000 heart failure deaths annually.
Hypertension
High blood pressure is the biggest contributor to the risk for heart disease and stroke. RPM with a blood pressure cuff can help reduce the blood pressure beyond self-monitoring. Remote monitoring can also be used as a preventative tool helping ensure a patient’s condition does not advance to hypertension.
Regular communication between the patient and the care team can help reduce both diastolic and systolic blood pressures.
Studies published in Clinical Cardiology has shown that 91% of patients on a remote monitoring regimen reduced their blood pressure by 135/83 mg Hg in an average seven-week program.
Diabetes
About 34.2 million Americans live with diabetes. Diabetes costs Americans a staggering $325 billion in medical and lost productivity related expenses annually.
Blood glucose is monitored with the use of a Glucometer in diabetic patients.
Studies published in Primary Care Diabetes has shown that consistent use of RPM can help patients reduce HbA1c levels by 1.8% at six months and 1.3% at 12 months. Doing so leads to better health outcomes and reduces complications like Retinopathy and Nephropathy.
The MedSys platform is designed to be user-friendly and device agnostic ensuring patients get the care they need irrespective of their conditions and technology proficiency. By using the MedSys RPM solution, providers receive timely information and actionable insights for their patients which in turn lead to pro-active intervention, improved patient care and faster recovery times.
The cost of chronic conditions in the US is over $3 trillion annually. Multiple studies comparing RPM to traditional care have concluded that the use of RPM for daily symptom-surveillance resulted in a significant decrease in hospital readmission rates as well as measurably fewer hospital days and outpatient visits.
The MedSys RPM solution ensures monitoring of patient vital signs and other health conditions at the patient’s home and away from conventional clinical settings. By using the MedSys RPM platform, patients are more engaged, better informed, and more efficacious at managing their health within the comforts of their homes.
RPM enables providers to better optimize resources. It does so by enabling early identification of patients that require intervention while at the same time continue monitoring of patients that display stable (or improving) vital signs thus avoiding unnecessary ER and hospital visits. Doing so improves patient satisfaction and enables efficiencies for providers.
Providers can now add to existing revenue streams by implementing Remote Patient Monitoring. Multiple CPT codes have been made available by CMS that can be used for reimbursing RPM related expenses ranging form patient onboarding to patient data review and other activities relating to remote care.
Remote monitoring allows patients with non-critical chronic conditions to remain at home and manage their own care while keeping the provider abreast of any changes to their vitals in real-time thus reducing unnecessary in-person visits. This allows providers and care teams more opportunities to ‘practice at the top of their license’ and spend more time with high-risk patients.
