Data Collected

Connectivity Status, Electronic Medical Record, Insurance Claims, Personal Medical

Impact #1	[Management Effectiveness - Real Time Information] By monitoring patients while they are at home, healthcare providers create an ecosystem around the patient and are able to more effectively tailor treatment to patients’ medical needs.
Impact #2	[Data Management - Data Analysis] With all of this new data, providers are better-equipped to create custom care and more accurately predict and prevent diagnoses.
Impact #3	[Cost Reduction - Overall] With these measurable improvements in healthcare processes, the quality of patient care and patient engagement metrics went up, but the cost of care came down,because all of these practices are now unified, all under one roof, all on one platform.
