"Inbound InHome is a major step forward for the growing advanced care at home industry because it eliminates many of the operational challenges of serving patients at home," said Dave Kerwar, CEO of Inbound Health. "Prior to the development of the app, patients and caregivers relied on manual and time-consuming processes throughout the care episode."
The app is an important component of Inbound InHome, a proprietary patient management and analytics platform by Inbound Health tailored for advanced in-home care. This platform integrates multiple in-home care solutions into one, streamlining the identification, coordination, and monitoring of patients by eliminating manual workflows. Inbound InHome utilizes machine learning models to enable health systems to promptly identify suitable candidates for home hospital care and proactively detect risks during their care journey. It also features a workflow application that automates logistical tasks throughout the care process, along with device-agnostic patient monitoring capabilities that integrate devices, wearables, and in-home sensors.
Exclusively available to patients enrolled in care at home programs using the Inbound InHome platform, the app comes pre-installed on iPads provided to program patients. It adheres to stringent data security and privacy standards, incorporating encrypted messaging and compliance with HIPAA regulations.
