MUNICH, September 27, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
Qualcomm Life, Inc. has established increasing momentum across multiple key European geographies including Germany, the United Kingdom and Scandinavia with the addition of new telehealth service customers. vitaphone health solutions, Solutions4Health and DELTA are leveraging the open, interoperable 2net™ Platform and 2net Hub to efficiently address chronic disease management, growing the global Qualcomm Life Ecosystem to over 270 medical device and health care services companies, and health care providers, payers and accountable care organizations.
vitaphone health solutions will leverage the 2net Platform and Hub in its future and currently deployed mHealth systems. 2net will wirelessly connect medical devices used by thousands of patients so that biometric data can be seamlessly shared with the patients' physicians and care team to support diagnosis, treatment decisions and treatment monitoring.
"Our goal is to enhance the quality of care for patients while implementing cost savings for insurance providers, and the 2net Platform is our connectivity solution of choice as it will significantly enhance our ability to provide low cost services while enabling us to meet our growth and expansion objectives," stated Katja Schroeder from vitaphone health solutions. "Because the Qualcomm Life Ecosystem is interoperable, it provides the scalability and flexibility required for us to continue to grow while potentially reducing our operational costs."
Significant pilot trials of mHealth tools and solutions to remotely monitor patients with chronic diseases have been conducted by hospitals in Europe and demonstrated the ability to reduce hospital readmissions, length of stay, and the associated costs. The 2net Platform gives telehealth service providers a wireless communications technology that can scale and flex with them as they move from pilot projects to mass-market adoption.
