Remote patient care is the new frontier of modern healthcare. As we’ve explored in our previous articles in this series, digital transformation is the key to helping healthcare organizations achieve the goals of providing patient-centric care. Today, we’ll take a close look at the role that remote patient monitoring plays in this process, focusing on VitalOn’s role in improving patient experience and transforming the healthcare landscape.
The Major Challenge to Digital Transition: Patient Compliance
Traditional healthcare systems often involve frequent doctor visits for routine tests, long wait times, and the complexity of managing one’s medical history. In addition, the system tends to be reactive rather than proactive, responding to health crises as they occur rather than preventing them. These and other issues could be dramatically improved by moving to remote patient care. But old habits die hard. The transition from traditional medical services to digital paradigms is often met with resistance, primarily due to patient compliance issues. The digital health revolution requires patients to actively engage with new technologies, which can be a source of concern for some. These fears typically stem from unfamiliarity with the devices, concerns about privacy, and skepticism about the effectiveness of remote care compared to in-person medical consultations. So how do we address these concerns?
Overcoming the Compliance Challenge: A Proactive Era of Healthcare
Remote patient monitoring platforms like VitalOn offer solution to the problem of patient compliance providing automatic spot and continuous checks of medical, vital and lifestyle parameters via a wide range of paired medical devices. This technology eliminates the need for regular visits to the doctor for routine checks, improving the patient experience and reducing the burden on healthcare systems. Instead of waiting for treatment and care, you have an always-on monitoring tools that allow patients to enjoy a more on-demand healthcare experience.
Traditional healthcare systems are reactive, responding to emergencies or unanticipated needs as they arise. The move to proactive management of patient health that comes with remote monitoring would give organizations a better ability to strategize, plan and prioritize properly, avoid misallocation of resources and redundant hospital readmissions, and support the ability to deliver personalized patient care, bridging the gap between the needs of healthcare providers and their patients, and taking healthcare into a new era.
