By 2030, non-communicable diseases will cause half of the global burden of disease in the developing countries

Repeat admissions, co-morbidities and delays in seeking treatment are just some of the ways costs can stack up when managing chronic health conditions.

Through remote patient monitoring technology, patients can be supported in the community - whether that is getting them out of hospital sooner, or preventing an unnecessary hospital admission.

This model of proactive care can help to reduce the likelihood of expensive treatment being needed, improving patient outcomes and lowering the costs of claims made on health insurance policies.

The benefit of remote patient monitoring to health insurers

From having an advantage over your competitors, to lowering your costs, adding a remote patient monitoring service into your insurance package has many benefits for both your company and your policyholders.

  1. Built into patient premium
    The customer pays, but it is included within their insurance premium once they reach a certain tier of cover.
  2. Added monthly cost, on top of premium
    It is a conscious additional extra that the customer pays, rather than included within an existing insurance package.
  3. Insurer pays the upfront cost
    The insurance provider identifies high-cost patients & provides Clinitouch free of charge.

How can I add remote patient monitoring into my insurance offering?

Whether you’re a health insurance provider, or medical aid scheme, here are three ways Clinitouch can easily slot in to your existing model.

Over a decade of success of managing chronic conditions and reducing admissions

Clinitouch is an NHS-tried-and-tested health tech software that has been helping to manage chronic conditions such as COPD, diabetes, hypertension and heart failure for over 10 years.

Now, alongside our work in the UK, Clinitouch technology is helping patients across the globe in a Partner Program backed by the UK’s Department for Business and Trade.

We have live health insurance and medical aid projects in Africa and Australia with the help of our on-the-ground implementation partners. These projects are helping to lower costs and improving care for customers with a range of non-communicable health conditions.
