When an eligible patient is enrolled in the free program, they will receive automated check-in calls or texts. If a patient reports that their symptoms are not improving, a Sanford clinician will follow up with them, according to an Aug. 9 Sanford news release.

The program is designed to reduce avoidable hospital readmissions.

Caresignal monitors:

 

  • Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease 
  • Depression
  • Type 2 Diabetes
  • Heart failure
  • Recovery after discharge from the hospital or emergency department

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
