KITCHENER, ON / ACCESSWIRE / March 31, 2022 / Cloud DX (TSX.V:CDX) (OTCQX:CDXFF) a leading Canadian provider of virtual care and remote patient monitoring solutions is pleased to announce the extension of its remote patient monitoring and virtual care contract with a large Canadian Provincial Health Authority.1
This new agreement extends Cloud DX's original contract, from May 2021, with the Provincial Health Authority to provide remote patient monitoring to patients throughout the province until September 30, 2023.
The award-winning Cloud DX Connected Health platform monitors and reports on physiological data including heart and respiratory rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, weight, temperature and blood glucose levels, along with condition-specific surveys and connection to the patient via two-way messaging and video visits.
Remote patient monitoring and virtual care are used to better engage patients in their care. Cloud DX software issues notifications to a care team if a patient's vital signs, symptoms or adherence to scheduled readings changes. The care team can then trigger a telemedicine video visit to determine the best next step. Early intervention can result in reduced ER visits, avoided hospital admissions and better care outcomes, resulting in a lower overall cost to the healthcare system.
Under the terms of the contract and extension with the province, Cloud DX receives an upfront payment for each Connected Health Kit delivered to a patient, and then charges a monthly connectivity, software and service fee for each active patient account.
