KITCHENER, ON / ACCESSWIRE / January 10, 2023 / Cloud DX (TSXV:CDX)(OTCQB:CDXFF), a leading digital health platform is pleased to announce a new contract with another Ontario hospital to provide its Connected Health™ remote patient monitoring (RPM) solution to patients with serious health conditions including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, type-2 diabetes, gestational diabetes, congestive heart failure, ‘long-COVID' syndrome, and more.
Most patients will use their own WiFi or cellular enabled mobile device to link to the Connected Health™ platform, enabling them to track their vital signs with easy-to-use Health Canada licensed and FDA cleared medical devices while they communicate with their care team through secure text messaging and video chat. Certain qualified patients will receive a customized Android tablet with the Connected Health™ mobile application pre-installed, improving adherence to care plans approved by their physicians.
This new contract with a leading Ontario hospital is part of an established program Cloud DX has created specifically to assist healthcare providers replacing older RPM systems from US-based medical equipment vendors that are less able to serve the unique needs of the Canadian healthcare market. Cloud DX has demonstrated customer satisfaction scores of over 95% in both published, peer-reviewed studies and provider led surveys1.
In 2022, Cloud DX announced 28 new contracts, a 225% increase over the 12 contracts signed in 2021. In addition to hospital-based RPM programs, Cloud DX supplies virtual care services to 2 provincial/territorial health departments, 5 Ontario community paramedic services, hospitals across Canada as well as US clients in 7 States.
Cloud DX COO and co-founder, Anthony Kaul commented, "Cloud DX is pleased to once again be selected in a competitive RFQ to replace an older, less responsive US vendor. Cloud DX Connected Health is the 'made in Ontario' RPM solution that is now deployed in 12 use cases, up from 2 use cases in 2019. Our focus in 2023 will be to deliver the best possible care to Canadians in security and comfort, as remote patient monitoring becomes Standard of Care for more serious health conditions."
