Product Description:

Equum Medical's Virtual Sitter Services enhance patient safety and care through continuous, remote monitoring. Designed to support hospitals facing staffing challenges and to improve patient outcomes, our virtual sitter services leverage advanced telehealth technology to provide constant observation of patients at risk of falls, self-harm, or other safety concerns.

Virtual sitters utilize high-resolution video and audio technology to monitor patients from a centralized location. This approach allows trained technicians to observe multiple patients simultaneously, providing real-time alerts to on-site nursing staff when immediate intervention is necessary. By reducing the need for in-person sitters, hospitals can optimize their resources and ensure that their staff is utilized efficiently.

The primary benefits of Equum Medical's Virtual Sitter Services include enhanced patient safety, reduced staffing costs, and improved workflow efficiency. Virtual sitters can promptly identify and respond to potential safety issues, ensuring that patients receive timely and appropriate care. This proactive approach helps to prevent falls, reduce incidents of self-harm, and mitigate other safety risks, leading to better patient outcomes and higher satisfaction rates.

Additionally, virtual sitters play a crucial role in supporting bedside nurses by handling routine monitoring tasks, allowing on-site staff to focus on more critical aspects of patient care. This collaboration fosters a safer, more efficient care environment and helps to alleviate the workload of overburdened nursing teams.

Equum Medical's Virtual Sitter Services offer a scalable, cost-effective solution to address the growing demands of modern healthcare. By integrating virtual sitters into their care models, hospitals can enhance patient safety, optimize staffing, and improve the overall quality of care provided to patients.

Product Capabilities

OnCare360 collects a wide range of data, including clinical information such as vital signs, diagnoses, medications, and post-discharge details; care management data like time spent on coordination and care plan updates; and patient-generated health data from RPM and RTM devices. It also gathers social determinants of health (SDOH) data, including housing, transportation, and other socioeconomic factors, along with behavioral health metrics such as mental health screenings and care plans. Preventive care data, such as Health Risk Assessments (HRA), Fall Risk Assessments (FRA), and Advance Care Planning (ACP) directives, are also collected, as well as engagement data from patient portals, communication logs, and reminders. Additionally, OnCare360 tracks billing and compliance data, including CPT codes and audit-ready documentation.

OnCare360 provides advanced analytics to support comprehensive care management and decision-making. These analytics include real-time dashboards for tracking patient outcomes, care plan adherence, and program performance across RPM, CCM, TCM, and other CMS programs. Risk stratification tools identify high-risk patients for targeted interventions, while utilization metrics assess resource efficiency and care delivery effectiveness. The platform also offers insights into social determinants of health (SDOH), highlighting barriers to care and tracking the impact of interventions. Additionally, OnCare360 generates compliance reports, billing accuracy metrics, and CPT code utilization summaries to ensure regulatory alignment and optimize reimbursements. This robust analytics suite enables providers to measure outcomes, improve workflows, and deliver data-driven care.

OnCare360 enables seamless bidirectional communication between healthcare providers, patients, and care teams to enhance coordination and engagement. The platform integrates secure messaging, patient portals, and real-time alerts to facilitate ongoing interactions. Providers can send care plan updates, educational materials, appointment reminders, and alerts to patients directly through the system, while patients can respond with questions, upload health data, or report symptoms via the portal or integrated communication tools. For care teams, OnCare360 supports collaborative workflows, allowing providers, nurses, and social workers to share updates, assign tasks, and communicate in real time. This two-way communication ensures that all stakeholders stay informed and aligned, fostering timely interventions and better care outcomes.

OnCare360 ensures providers can engage eligible patients through cellular-connected devices, eliminating the need for Wi-Fi and enhancing accessibility for underserved populations. For patients with higher technical literacy, OnCare360 offers an intuitive mobile app to streamline access to care plans, reminders, and educational resources. This combination ensures tailored engagement for diverse patient needs.

OnCare360 offers pre-built, condition-specific care plans and pathways that are fully customizable to meet the unique needs of each patient.

Integrated directly into the platform, these care plans align with automated workflows, ensuring seamless implementation while enabling providers to personalize interventions, enhance adherence, and optimize outcomes with ease.

OnCare360 seamlessly integrates with existing EHR systems, supporting both HL7 file-based integration and SMART on FHIR protocols. This interoperability ensures smooth data exchange, enabling providers to synchronize patient information, care plans, and clinical workflows directly within their EHR environment. By leveraging industry-standard frameworks, OnCare360 enhances operational efficiency and reduces duplication of effort, allowing healthcare teams to focus on delivering high-quality, coordinated care.

OnCare360 streamlines logistics management, staff training, patient onboarding, and ongoing tech support to enhance the clinician and patient experience.

Description:

• A primary care practice is overwhelmed with the administrative burden of managing a large population of patients with chronic conditions like diabetes and hypertension. Care plans are outdated, follow-ups are missed, and staff struggle to accurately track time for billing compliance with Chronic Care Management (CCM) services. This results in poor patient outcomes and underutilization of reimbursement opportunities.

• A cardiology practice focuses on managing patients with advanced heart conditions but faces challenges in coordinating Principal Care Management (PCM) for these high-risk individuals. Providers find it difficult to track detailed interactions, update care plans, and collaborate with primary care teams, leading to gaps in care and reduced efficiency in managing a single complex condition.

• A regional hospital experiences high readmission rates and struggles to optimize patient length-of-stay due to ineffective Transitional Care Management (TCM). Many patients discharged after acute care fail to schedule follow-ups, adhere to discharge instructions, or receive timely medication reconciliation. Additionally, inefficient discharge planning leads to extended hospital stays, straining resources and affecting patient flow. Without a centralized system to monitor post-discharge care, track follow-up visits, and coordinate transitions, the hospital faces challenges in improving recovery outcomes, reducing readmissions, and achieving value-based care benchmarks.

• A rural health clinic struggles to monitor patients with chronic diseases due to limited access to in-person care and delayed identification of worsening symptoms. Patients are often unaware of their health trends, leading to avoidable complications. The clinic needs a solution to integrate FDA-approved RPM devices and deliver real-time insights for timely interventions.

• A payvider serving a diverse population finds that many patients face significant social determinants of health (SDOH) barriers, such as transportation challenges, food insecurity, and housing instability. These barriers prevent patients from adhering to care plans and attending follow-ups, resulting in increased healthcare costs and poor outcomes. The organization lacks tools to systematically capture and address these non-medical factors.
