Humana Remote Monitoring Pilots Engage Circle of Care Surrounding Member

Description: Humana's remote monitoring pilots go beyond traditional targets of heart failure, diabetes and COPD to observe functionally challenged members, explains Gail Miller. This novel approach uses a Personal Emergency Response System (PERS) with a built-in accelerometer to monitor members challenged by activities of daily living (ADL), says the VP of telephonic clinical operations in Humana's care management organization, Humana Cares/SeniorBridge. Another pilot, a collaboration with HealthSense, places sensors around the member's home to study algorithms of normal movement so Humana can detect changes and intervene before a member's crisis. All Humana remote monitoring pilots engage the circle of care surrounding the member --- be it home health, a family member, or a spouse. Gail Miller will share more details of Humana's telephonic care management and how remote monitoring pilots will enhance care coordination during a March 19, 2014 webinar, "Integrating Mobile Health Remote Patient Monitoring with Telephonic Care Management for Improved Care Coordination Results," a 45-minute program sponsored by The Healthcare Intelligence Network.
