Cloud DX chosen as Virtual Care Platform for the Ontario Paramedical Service provider, replacing existing hardware and services
KITCHENER, ON / ACCESSWIRE / March 29, 2022 / Cloud DX (TSXV:CDX)(OTCQX:CDXFF) is pleased to announce a new 24-month contract with an Ontario Paramedic Service Provider enabling the client to provide Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) across its serviceable area. Cloud DX will provide its award-winning Connected Health™ platform and support the client as it transitions from its previous remote care tools to Cloud DX's Virtual Care Platform. The client showcases how beneficial ‘Remote Care Monitoring' is for Paramedical Service providers, enabling providers to establish deeper community roots and maintain funding levels, while community members benefit from greater access to much-needed care. The client has purchased 223 Connected Health™ kits totalling ~$145,000 CAD with additional recurring fees for subscription software services. Funding for the program comes from the $82.5M Community Paramedicine for Long-Term Care program announced by the Ontario government on October 22, 2021.
The Paramedical client will provide Cloud DX's biometric monitoring equipment to clients in their homes to monitor vital signs including weight, blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen level, temperature, and blood glucose. Daily monitoring allows the client and health care providers to make informed decisions and enables the Paramedic to connect with the client if a metric is out of range. The paramedical care provider seeks to keep individuals on the long-term care bed waitlist and individuals who are medically complex or isolated comfortable and safe in their homes. In turn, Remote Care Monitoring is expected to reduce 911 calls, emergency room visits, and hospital admissions.
Cloud DX COO and co-founder, Anthony Kaul, states "At-home remote monitoring is critical to improving the health of vulnerable populations, such as community members with chronic conditions or seniors who wish to live independently for as long as possible. By bringing Remote Care Monitoring directly to the community our client is forging a new path in paramedicine. This modern approach improves community health and enables significantly earlier intervention for those with deteriorating health, in turn reducing hospitalizations. Cloud DX is well known for our high user satisfaction ratings, so we are confident this initiative will be well received by the community. Of course, with our Headquarters in Ontario, we're always extremely happy to support our neighbouring communities."
