SAN DIEGO – May 1, 2017 – ResMed CEO Mick Farrell will deliver today’s keynote presentation at the 10X Medical Device Conference.
In his talk, “The Path to Patient Adherence and Engagement Is Digital Connected Care,” Farrell will share how digital tools paired with smart, connected devices can help providers maximize resources, while helping patients achieve better health outcomes.
In the U.S. alone, poor adherence or non-adherence to medical treatment costs an estimated $290 billion annually. It limits effective management and control of chronic illnesses, increases the likelihood of preventable disease progression, and increases hospitalizations, avoidable doctor and emergency room visits, and other problems arising from poor health.
Secure, cloud-based solutions, such as those commercialized by ResMed, the global leader in cloud-based remote patient monitoring, can help increase patient adherence, and enable care teams to monitor patients more efficiently, access relevant therapy data and reduce time spent on back-office paperwork and processes.
