If your accountable care organization (ACO) hasn’t adopted a comprehensive remote patient monitoring solution yet—or the solution you do have is a bit lacking—this is your wake-up call to examine your options. The best remote patient monitoring solutions on the market are powerful, agile tools that can help ACOs reduce in-person visits and clinic workload while preventing unnecessary emergency department visits and hospital readmissions. The newest generation of virtual care and remote monitoring platforms can be scaled and customized to fit patients in every walk of life with an enormous variety of health conditions, from chronic disease prevention to hospital at home care.

Remote patient monitoring isn’t a novel idea in pediatrics—for certain chronic pediatric conditions, it’s been the standard of care for years. But recent device and software innovations, coupled with the larger shift toward virtual care, mean that pediatric hospitals have more and better options than ever. User-friendly patient engagement tools and flexible device options keep patients and caregivers/parents involved in the care process and more likely to adhere to recommended care plans. Providers can take advantage of better data collection and sophisticated data analysis tools to inform treatment recommendations, decrease hospital and clinic traffic, decrease their administrative burden and boost revenue.

What do academic health systems want when it comes to digital care and remote patient monitoring products? It’s complicated, according to a 2021 Healthcare Innovation report. Remote monitoring and other virtual care solutions must make sense for individual institutions, integrate smoothly into clinical operations, offer clear financial benefits, operate within the existing IT infrastructure and serve the institution’s commitment to education and the community. Fortunately, a wealth of versatile, scalable, almost infinitely customizable options exist to help care teams at academic medical centers deliver cost-effective remote care to just about anyone, anywhere—regardless of age, tech literacy or access to devices. Other platforms are even being utilized to identify study candidates and remotely collect data to support decentralized clinical trials.

Available digital healthcare solutions are evolving and improving rapidly, transforming how healthcare organizations meet patients’ needs. Few healthcare facilities have stood to benefit from the rise of telehealth technology as much as rural hospitals, which often serve as the primary source of outpatient services for underserved local communities. But recently, rural hospitals have struggled to sustain the high levels of outpatient care they typically provide. Additionally, hospitals in rural areas rank last when it comes to telehealth adoption, which has left them poorly prepared to take part in the shift to virtual-first care and put their financial health at risk. According to a recent McKinsey report, that will soon change, as rural hospitals increasingly turn to remote patient monitoring solutions to provide better, more accessible primary care and improve coordination with regionally scarce specialists. To do so, they’ll need to choose the right platform for their use case.

AccendoWave’s Remote Monitoring Solution objectively measures pain and provides real-time pain data. Pain is one of the primary reasons patients access health care and a primary driver of cost, but since pain data can’t be extracted from electronic health records, health systems don’t have any data or insight about these costs. Additionally, pain has a bias problem: women and pain, ethnicity and pain, seniors and pain. Their number one complaint is often that their pain isn’t believed. If health care systems are serious about their health equity pledges, they must address pain bias with technology to validate patient pain. Retraining the entire clinical workforce just isn’t an option.

Nuvo’s mission is to give every life a better beginning. Nuvo was founded to address the very intimate challenges that parents face throughout the various stages of pregnancy.

Our solution addresses an outdated model for pregnancy care, social determinants of health barriers and an increasing demand for virtual care solutions. Across the country, hospitals are closing their OB or ED units, making it harder to access quality care for delivery and forcing parents to travel farther for their appointments. Half of rural counties do not have a practicing OB-GYN and more are lacking a midwife.

For decades, remote patient monitoring (RPM) consisted of paper logs to track vital signs and symptoms and phone calls between appointments. While blood pressure logs and weight tracking were useful for individual patients, there was no practical way to design, deploy and scale a remote patient monitoring program for an entire patient population. But rapid hardware and software innovation, coupled with the widespread adoption of desktop and mobile devices, made smart and efficient remote patient monitoring a reality.

Conversational AI is an advanced technology that allows machines to understand, process, and respond to human language in a way that is both contextually relevant and interactive. Within the healthcare sector, this technology is increasingly deployed to automate routine tasks and deliver a more robust and personalized patient experience. Conversational AI leverages a combination of machine learning, natural language processing, and occasionally deep learning to interpret and respond to user inputs, with a conversational user interface that mimics human interaction. Digital health companies deploy conversational AI through chatbots, voice assistants, messaging apps, or any other type of platform where natural language interactions occur.

Discover the rise of the 'Fullstack Employee'—professionals empowered by AI to transcend traditional roles, boosting productivity, flexibility, and innovation. Dive into the transformative power of AI in reshaping the workforce and learn how businesses can harness this shift for a brighter future.

From providing quick, relevant, and legitimate responses to health questions to streamlining essential tasks, AI chatbots are revolutionizing how patients interact with healthcare providers and provide unique new opportunities for health systems to enhance operations with digital tools.

Advances in conversational AI virtual assistants deliver tremendous value both to patients and their providers. Leading solutions can answer routine questions, support symptom triage, help patients schedule appointments, provide education, facilitate intake and procedure prep activities, and engage patients post-discharge and during follow-up, all while reducing administrative burdens for care teams and support staff.

With conversational AI involved, legal frameworks like HIPAA and GDPR still apply, but involve added complexity and dimensions. Within legal frameworks like HIPAA and GDPR, conversational AI raises new questions about patient privacy and compliance. For instance, can a chatbot be HIPAA-compliant? How do we ensure that the data processed through conversational interfaces receive the same level of security as traditional electronic health records? Legal authorities and legislative bodies are starting to tackle these issues, but healthcare providers must stay ahead of the curve to ethically utilize these tools and ensure legal compliance.

Consumers continue to expect more with each healthcare experience, and providers are grappling with how new market solutions can cater to non-loyal patients. Health systems operate in a progressively competitive environment as the supply of available healthcare services has grown. Meanwhile, consumers have adapted their lifestyles over the past three decades to a fast-paced, competitive, and accessible market. As a result, today’s healthcare consumers have a wide array of choices at their disposal, including a burgeoning array of telehealth options that can serve patients in any location.

Generative AI solutions offer incredible opportunities for the healthcare industry to improve care across multiple dimensions and provide accessible and engaging user experiences. It makes sense that healthcare entities want to implement these tools quickly to attain the promised benefits and avoid falling behind their competitors. But these technologies might still fall short of the hype, with significant shortcomings that may overshadow the advantages for many potential customers.
