Digital Care Assistant

<p>The Illuminate Health platform is a source of preventative care, medication therapy management, &nbsp;&amp; a safety net for all healthcare stakeholders. We minimize wasteful healthcare spending associated with superfluous doctor visits &amp; poor communication channels between healthcare providers &amp; patients. We assist in medication reconciliation &amp; proactively incorporate safety checks that address preventable health events like adverse drug events (ADEs) which constitute roughly 4.5 million Physician &amp; ER visits each year. Our HIPAA compliant messaging allows greater communication opportunities for clinicians to provide patients with vital health information in decentralized settings. Our health tracking metrics empowers clinicians to watch the progression of their patient&#39;s health in real-time, improving diagnostic/clinical decision making &amp; patient wellness.</p> <p>Our solution enables providers&nbsp;to achieve a more complete view of patients&#39; conditions and improve patient experience scores. With Illuminate Health, providers&#39; productivity is gained at ease, with increasing reimbursement opportunities around remote patient monitoring and&nbsp;chronic care management.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Take for example a patient who suffers from diabetes, a chronic condition that requires daily monitoring &amp; engagement from both patient &amp; provider to ensure effective management &amp; safe recovery. A patient begins their therapy with long-acting insulin at a low dose. Their compliance rates &amp; glucose input are tracked &amp; saved using the Illuminate Health (IH) app. The patient&rsquo;s primary physician is also interfaced with the IH app &amp; can see the patient&rsquo;s history of compliance &amp; glucoses, as well as any reported adverse drug events or side effects experienced. The physician can use these data points to&nbsp;augment patient dose &amp; schedule. Subsequently our platform will automatically notify the patient of the&nbsp;dosing &amp; scheduling change &amp; the physician can send a HIPAA secure message to the patient with a detailed explanation of changes in therapy using our doctor portal, remotely.&nbsp;Any queries from the patient can be responded to by the practicing physician or one of the Illuminate Health pharmacists through our patient chat feature.</p>

<p>Illuminate Health&rsquo;s hospital capabilities are most appropriately explained through the prism of transition of care, in particular the transition from inpatient to outpatient settings. Our platform will help hospitals cut cost through expediting the tranfer&nbsp;of patients from inpatient to outpatient settings all while improving patients&#39; health conditions through&nbsp;better remote monitoring of real-time data and&nbsp;constant access to patients via HIPAA compliant messaging.</p> <p>Our solution enables hospitals to achieve a more complete view of patients&#39; conditions and improve patient experience scores. With Illuminate Health, hospitals&#39; productivity is gained at ease, with increasing reimbursement opportunities around remote patient monitoring, chronic care management and medication therapy management.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Our initial point of contact with the patient is at discharge from an inpatient health care facility. After a pharmacist, nurse, or other staff has reconciled the discharge medications, those drugs can be uploaded to our app for the patient, so they leave the facility with an accurate, updated med list. This can also be a point of education for pharmacists, nurses, etc. to review with their patient prior to discharge. Any med changes can be visually highlighted within the app. After discharge, the tools for user-generated data &amp; secure communication can be utilized to track patient progress &amp; follow-up easily.</p> <p>During admission to the facility, the app could serve as an up-to-date med list. Additionally, providers could see the patient&#39;s medication compliance, reported&nbsp;side effects, disease symptoms, &amp; a list of outpatient providers and pharmacies. This user-generated data can help providers during diagnosis. For example, if a hypertensive patient&#39;s blood pressure is elevated, but their med compliance is poor, increasing the dose may not be warranted. During the discharge process, the admit list of meds can be used to help reconcile the discharge medications. This can especially helpful for medications that were formulary switches, which are more likely&nbsp;to cause duplicate therapy &amp; can lead to unintentional overdoses. Using our app for discharge med reconciliation can also help ensure that&nbsp;hospital protocol meds, e.g. for stress ulcer prophylaxis,&nbsp;are not&nbsp;continued once the patient is discharged. These interventions are imperative as research&nbsp;has&nbsp;shown &quot;patients who have a clear understanding of their post-hospital care instructions are 30% less likely to be readmitted or visit the ER.&quot; (https://www.ahrq.gov/professionals/quality-patient-safety/patient-safety-resources/resources/impptdis/index.html)</p>

<p>- For Big Pharma:</p> <p>Illuminate Health app can accommodate all generic and brand name medications, whether solid or liquid and inhalers. Our education material, medication regimen creation and safety net checks ensure that patients understand when and how to take medications, along with potential side effects to expect. This assistance would increase compliance to therapies, refill rates and hence outcomes, inform big pharma about their medication experiences in the field for improvements.</p> <p>- For Health Insurance companies and employers:</p> <p>Given that our solution is designed to be a wellness tool, members/employees who are taking 5 meds or more on a daily basis, or are caregivers to family members can take some of the care coordination and medication management burden off to decrease stress and be more productive. This translates into lower cost of healthcare for the companies and patients. Medicare and Medicaid plans have requirements to offer such digital tools, improve medication adherence and hence our product will be helpful in that regard.</p> <p>- Pharmacies and PBMs</p> <p>Star ratings and patient engagement is big with these organizations as they look to compete in this dynamic environment. Everyone can benefit from overall and real-time data on patient medications list and health status, compliance and communication capabilities. Illuminate Health offers increased opportunities for pharmacies and PBMs to engage with their customers and build relationships like the traditional neighborhood pharmacy.</p> <p>- For Senior Living facilities&nbsp;</p> <p>We enable families to be in easier and up to date contact with their loved one who is staying at such a facility. Families can have access to health status, medication administration and more. The facilities can focus on taking care of their residents as compared to responding to calls, also increasing satisfaction from a competitive perspective. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
