What does this mean?

Empowering patients and expanding access with ease

eCareCompanion is an easy-to-use telehealth app that patients access on a secure tablet at home and use to share health information with their care team. With just a few simple taps of the screen, patients can enter in their vital information and submit it to their care team for review. They can also answer survey questions, respond to email messages, receive reminders about their care plan, and even have a video call with their provider.

Platform features

With the tap of the screen, patients launch eCareCompanion, enter their password, and easily begin providing vital information to caregivers in a private and secure manner. Patients answer survey questions and enter requested measurements to enable the care team’s assessment. They are reminded of pre-assigned health tasks, and can view their recent vital trends, helping them associate health behaviors with health trends. intervention.
