Prodea Systems www.prodea.com at the Connected Health Summit held in San Diego and hosted by Parks Associates www.connectedhealthsummit.com announced that the company has entered into a strategic partnership with Eocene Systems www.eocenehealth.com. This will enable Prodea’s Residential Operating System (ROS®) to be distributed to healthcare organizations across the U.S.
With growing concerns over the long term costs of chronic disease management and its impact on the medical infrastructure, healthcare providers are searching for solutions that can both actively engage patients in their care as well as empower physicians with the tools they need to better manage these conditions on a real-time basis.
With a market of over 70 million patients, the partnership will initially target one million across Eocene’s existing customers. Eocene provides tools in the home to help patients to self-monitor and change behaviors that will result in better disease prevention. This partnership underscores Prodea’s emergence into the eHealth field, with the remote management of patients through connected devices and technology.
Eocene sees technology as a way to create a link between systems, the cloud, and the patient, through the use of Prodea’s platform which is able to bridge the gap and provide a seamless integrated approach to this problem.
Specifically, Prodea’s ROS helps healthcare professionals use effective tools to:
- Leverage real-time and continuous data and communicate important health information to their patients around the management of their long-term chronic diseases
- Help patients use important health information via media channels within their home or on the go to ensure that critical information is delivered in real-time
- Deliver autonomous, agnostic, and easy to use connectivity between patients, their health data, and the medical infrastructures supporting them
According to Bryan Sowards, CEO of Eocene Systems, “Prodea’s ROS platform is able to go that last mile into the patient’s home and not only capture diagnostic data, but also engage with the patient fostering changes in their behavior and ultimately helping them to live a healthier lifestyle.”
