The seamless integration delivers crucial
insights into a patient's medication-taking behaviors, leading to
more informed treatment decisions and improving patient care
TULSA,
Okla., June 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- PatchRx
today announced the launch of PatchRx Connect, an easy-to-integrate
tool that brings medication adherence data directly into the
unified care management suite. With PatchRx Connect, clinical teams
can gain real-time insight into patients' medication-taking
behaviors – without disrupting existing workflows or impacting
patient experience.
Medication is a critical component in many patient's care plans.
More than 131 million people — 66 percent of all adults in the
US — take prescription medications. Yet, without insight into a
patient's actual medication-taking patterns, it's difficult for
clinicians to assess the effectiveness of a prescribed treatment.
By unlocking access to real-time medication adherence data, PatchRx
Connect helps clinicians better evaluate a patient's response to
treatment, individualize their approach to care, and intervene
early to prevent adverse health outcomes associated with
non-adherence.
"Requiring clinicians to juggle disparate, non-integrated web
apps and platforms with various data sources is inefficient in
providing great patient care. By combining patient information and
feedback sources into singular, unified care platforms we're
providing clinicians the ability to assess a patient holistically
and take action faster," said Andrew Aertker, PatchRx
co-founder and CEO. "The launch of PatchRx Connect is a significant
step toward this vision of more efficient patient care, opening up
a pathway for providers and other software companies to utilize our
medication adherence insights directly within their platforms and
existing workflows."
Through PatchRx Connect, providers are empowered to improve
treatment outcomes and reduce costs associated with poor medication
adherence — all without disrupting existing workflows or patient
experience. Key components include:
- Universally-fit smart pill bottle cap, PatchCap, tracks
medication-taking behaviors
- PatchRx Connect Gateway that streams data securely via cellular
to the PatchRx web app and API — no wifi or mobile app
required
- PatchRx Connect API, which allows providers to view the
received data, metrics, and trends in their own managed care
software systems via HIPAA-compliant integration
- PatchRx Web App, an out-of-the-box interface for viewing
received data, metrics, and trends, which can be used in a
standalone fashion or in conjunction with the API
- Patient SMS alerts for reminders and updates from care
managers
- Remote enrollment, enabled by PatchRx's integrated DTC shipment
capabilities, which are also available via API integration
The launch of PatchRx Connect comes on the heels of recent
momentum for the company, including partnerships with Harris
Healthcare, a long-time technology innovator, and DrFirst, a
pioneer in healthcare IT systems used by 350,000 providers
nationwide. With PatchRx Connect, the company is now broadening its
use cases by directly embedding medication adherence insights for a
more expansive list of stakeholders including care management
platforms, EMRs, and health systems.
