A new telehealth service, Qortex, connects healthcare professionals with patients using their home TV to provide real-time visual, voice, and vital sign data access in real-time.
Created by digital health technology company, MedSign, Qortex virtually connects hospitals, medical professionals, home care agencies, and pharmaceutical companies with patients all from the comfort and safety of the patient's home through a small, easy to use TV mounted camera and senior (or tech adverse) friendly remote control.
Qortex addresses couple of challenges facing healthcare delivery - immunocompromised patients are cut off from their doctors unable to visit them for regular health check-ins, and hospitals are struggling to stay afloat having lost patients. Innovative telehealth solutions that are easy to install can help bring this gap benefits both providers and patients.
