Product Capabilities

Easy ability to text, call, and video call with providers and specialists. Integrations to connected devices, file and screen sharing, and group chats are all available and simple to use by either the provider or the patient.

VitalTech Insights, our business intelligence (BI) and advanced analytics tool enables our clients to analyze, visualize and better utilize patient data. It allows clients to quickly see outcome data and gain business insights to share with team members, enabling better care with greater efficiency. Care teams can connect to VitalTech Insights via VitalCare’s fully HIPAA-compliant clinical provider portal. Insights ingest EHR data, SHP data, claims data, and VitalTech data collected from multiple devices, patient surveys and questionnaires, and third-party sources. Using Amazon Web Services (AWS), the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform, to analyze and customize the data, VitalTech Insights has demonstrated improved outcomes and improved costs of care. The analyses provided by VitalTech Insights deliver care teams with a visualized overview of patients’ health in a simple, easy-to-use platform, and data can be exported to easily digestible reports that can be shared with various members of the care team. Clients can customize reports as needed to help track their outcomes and other key performance measures.

Our team is here to assist with ongoing support to create custom reports and analyses.

VitalTech is hardware agnostic, supporting a wide range of devices and vendors with full integration to Apple Health and Google Fit. VitalTech has partnered with cutting-edge wearables and sensors to ensure patients' home safety and well-being. By continuously monitoring vital signs and other health parameters, these devices enable providers to identify potential issues early on, allowing for timely interventions and reducing the risk of complications.

Both patient and care team have constant access to communication via our platform.

The VitalCare patient application was designed with ease of use as one of the primary goals. It is simple and straightforward, and able to be used by people with little or no technical knowledge. One of the key focus areas for VitalTech has been developing simple, intuitive UI and communications. The UI is designed to be very senior friendly for low vision and dexterity . VitalTech follows the recommendation of the Joint Commission that all patient education materials (PEMs) should be written at or below a 5th grade reading level in order to address the health literacy needs of all patients. We are mindful that many of our patients utilizing the VitalCare application are elderly, with the average age of our users being 78. With that knowledge, we work hard to ensure that our application is easy to use no matter a patient’s age and/or technical literacy. VitalTech and AT&T initiated a strategic partnership to deliver best-in-class virtual care over FirstNet, ensuring patients and clinicians always have access to real-time data and communications to solve some of the more significant health equity issues the US healthcare system faces. From AT&T, we provide patient access to the FirstNet network mentioned prior. As a FirstNet subscriber, patients would get prioritized access on all AT&T LTE bands in addition to Band 14, while also receiving enhanced coverage in rural areas.

Pre-built patient care plans for a multitude of chronic disease states are available within the platform. These can easily be changed by the provider or our support team.

We have a dedicated customer success team that will continue to work with you and is always available to rectify any issues that may come up, for both you and any of the patients on the system. VitalTech offers a 24/7 customer and technical support service for both providers and patients.

Through the VitalCare Engagement module, clients can utilize and upload their own desired specialized training, as well as any of the VitalTech supplied patient education materials. VitalTech offers a library of education content with the goal of increasing patient engagement and understanding of their disease state and/or program, which leads to better outcomes and patient satisfaction.

Rimidi integrates with a broad portfolio of medical devices, including cellular glucometers, blood pressure cuffs, scales, and pulse oximeters. Rimidi integrates with leading Continuous Glucose Monitors, including FreeStyle Libre, Dexcom, and Eversense. In addition, Rimidi integrates with Adherium's Hailie® Smartinhaler®.

Rimidi's clinical decision support engine drives clinical insights and actions from RPM alerts to guideline and protocol adherence.

Rimidi supports two-way text messaging between the patient and the care team.

Cellular-enabled devices are easy-to-use and do not require the patient to have access to home WiFi or even a smart phone. Rimidi supports texting a patient in their native language, and our clinical monitoring staff can support multilingual needs.

Rimidi has ready-to-use care plan templates that can be customized for use in CCM or other disease management initiatives.

The Rimidi platform most often operates as a Single Sign On (“SSO”) to the provider’s EHR, either through SMART on FHIR or Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) depending on the EHR. Rimidi has established integrations with most major EHRs, including eClinicalWorks, Epic, OCHIN, Oracle Cerner, Veradigm, athenahealth, and Meditech. Integrations enable Rimidi to pull relevant clinical data into the platform to support gap in care closure and provide robust disease context next to the RPM data. In addition, Rimidi can write back documents (RPM summaries, care plans, etc.) or support HL7 workflows for discrete data write back.

Platform Support: Rimidi has a Client Success team that is dedicated to our customers from program design through implementation that continues for the life of the engagement. Your Client Success Manager (CSM) will come onsite for training and provide additional virtual training sessions as needed. Your CSM and support staff are engaged with you through all aspects of the program, including the set-up of the Rimidi platform, EHR integration, user training, and connecting devices. Care Management Support: Rimidi provides clinical monitoring for many of our clients who want to supplement their current staff or to avoid dedicating in-house staff to new programs considering hiring and staffing challenges. The monitoring staff can include health coaches, registered nurses (RNs), advanced practice providers (APPs), and medical doctors (MDs) depending on the client’s program structure and staffing needs. All monitoring staff carry appropriate state licensures and can support multiple languages as needed. With the efficiency that the Rimidi platform delivers, one clinical user can manage approximately 250 patients.

Description:
  • A fully-capitated provider needs a better way to manage their highest risk patients to reduce hospital utilization and improve quality measures. Their centralized disease management team uses Rimidi to monitor weight and pulse oximetry in heart failure patients, CGM or BGM data in diabetes patients, and inhalation quality in their Asthma patients.
  • A physician practice wants to increase practice revenue while taking better care of their patients. They work with Rimidi's care management team to enroll appropriate patients in RPM and CCM programs, and document the clinical and billlable activities within Rimidi. 
  • A physician sees a patient with poorly controlled diabetes in the office and is prompted in the Rimidi diabetes view to enroll the patient in remote monitoring and to consider a therapy adjustment to optimize cardiovascular risk reduction. The physician creates a dynamic care plan with each encounter that posts back to their EMR. The physician reviews the patient’s home glucose readings one week after therapy adjustment to ensure adequate control.
  • A patient uses the connected glucometer provided by the practice. She can see whether she is in her target range, and text with her care team in response to her data. 
  • A care coordinator monitors a clinic’s patients with diabetes, heart failure or hypertension remotely, addressing alerts configured for the clinic and ensuring that they are meeting clinical guidelines and helping to avoid costly admissions and readmissions. Documentation for RPM and CCM activity is done in the Rimidi app and aggregate for billing purposes.

Differentiators

Differentiators vs EHR Functionality:

While EHRs are often viewed as competitors, it is clear that their current functionality is not comparable. EHRs do not provide clients with actionable insights that lead to informed decision making.

VitalCare Admin not only stores all the data but also provides valuable insights through VitalTech Insights and automates provider workflows with VitalTech Care+.

EHRs are introducing new features in an attempt to keep up with the innovative virtual care solutions, but unfortunately they continue to fall short in their functionality. 

VitalCare's provider portal (VitalCare Admin) proactively supports clinicians to deliver the highest quality of care to patients in in the comfort of their own home simply and effectively. 


Differentiators vs Competitors:

VitalTech's comprehensive virtual care platform and advanced analytics will provide you with a significant competitive advantage in the region by offering comprehensive and innovative remote patient monitoring and engagement solutions.

This enhanced engagement elevates patients' quality of life and bolsters their confidence in the care they receive from you. Patients' sense of empowerment and support from this platform ultimately translates to higher satisfaction rates and improved patient retention.

Differentiators vs EHR Functionality:

In the sales process, we often hear “Doesn’t Epic (or other EHR) do that?” Rimidi is not built to replace the EHR, but to enhance it by bringing in additional data sets, providing more efficient workflows, and improving the user experience. Rimidi can install and configure its platform within 3-6 weeks which is significantly faster and more cost effective than onsite EHR teams can build and support enhancements to meet clinical needs. Rimidi’s modern technology stack enables rapid cycle innovation and iteration post-go live.

Differentiators vs Competitors:

Rimidi’s cardiometabolic platform is most often compared to other Remote Patient Monitoring solutions, but the platform-approach to RPM allows Rimidi to do so much more. Some key differentiators of the Rimidi platform are: (1) tight integration with leading EHRs via SMART on FHIR, (2) the breadth of the comorbid disease states we cover, (3) our incorporations of patient-reported outcomes and social determinants of health measures and (4) our Clinical Decision Support engine. Rimidi’s CDS cards support almost any insight or intervention a client wants: RPM data alerting and interventions, referral management, lab or medication recommendations, clinical trial identification, and more.
