Empower chronic patients with better self-care approaches
The eCAC ambulatory telehealth program gives care teams the capability to monitor and coach high-risk chronic patients, helping them improve their ability to manage their own condition. Guidelines-based care plans are tailored for the unique needs of each patient, delivering a personalized experience for patients while enabling care teams to scale their efforts.
Philips telehealth programs with remote patient monitoring allow patients to track their vital signs from their homes and enables clinicians to make timelier care decisions.
Program features and services
The eCAC program combines clinical software and in-home technology that improve outcomes by fostering behavioral change. Customized care plans allow clinicians to set thresholds on incoming vital signs and survey replies, and send educational content to help empower patients to self-care.
