Remote Patient Monitoring & Supporting Population Health

Remote patient monitoring and the use of digital technology to achieve this is an important part of the NHS Long Term Plan. But with the appearance of Covid-19 digital health has finally come of age, as the need to reduce face-to-face contact between clinicians and their patients has never been greater.

As medicine and clinicians’ expertise improves people with serious and life-limiting disease like cancer live longer. Away from hospital, free of treatment, living longer and more fulfilling lives. And with Covid-19 introducing unparalleled risks to clinicians and patients the need for ‘remoteness’ is greater than ever.

But reducing potential contact between clinicians and their patients introduces new risks. Risks that people living with serious conditions may be lost to the system. Those people need constant monitoring and remote surveillance to identify any problems that may reappear, but they at the same time they must not be lost sight of.

We’ve provided digital remote monitoring for years. It’s more relevant today than it’s ever been. That’s why we’re seeing increasing demand for our services. We can help clinicians and their patients using digital health technology. Technology like beetroot®.

Why beetroot®?

“I’m not sure how we would have identified our high risk patients without TAMonitor (beetrootDMARD). It will also allow some of us to work from home. It’s been an incredibly valuable tool for helping us to look after our patients during the epidemic.”

Healthcare providers benefit from remote monitoring and improvingvulnerable patients’ wellbeing through a sophisticated but simple-to-use management interface in a cost-effective way.

Patients benefit from enhanced self-management by combining visibility of
their health data with personalised coaching from a rich knowledge base.
