CANTON, Ohio, Sept. 13 /PRNewswire/ — AultCare has been using
patient telemonitoring for six years and has, in partnership with
Cardiocom, released a white paper entitled, “AultCare Sees Positive
Results from Cardiocom Program.”
The paper describes the structure of the coordinated program
between health plan, hospital, physician and patient. Improved
patient self-management has resulted in measurable reductions in
emergency room and inpatient utilization from participating
patients. With health reform incentives to hospitals to reduce
readmission rates, and initiatives to improve care coordination for
chronic conditions, this data reveals timely information for
patients and health systems.
The white paper discusses:
- How telemonitoring works
- Results achieved
- Lessons learned
