\n New solution demonstrates proven results in improving patient engagement, health outcomes, and lowering cost of care while enabling workflow efficiencies <\/em>\n <\/p>\n

\n Amsterdam, the Netherlands \u2013<\/strong>
\n
\n Royal Philips<\/u>
\n <\/a> (NYSE: PHG, AEX: PHIA), a global leader in health technology, today announced the debut of Philips Virtual Care Management<\/u><\/a>, a comprehensive portfolio of flexible solutions and services to help health systems, providers, payers and employer groups more meaningfully motivate and deeply connect with patients from virtually anywhere. Philips Virtual Care Management can help reduce pressure on hospital staff by decreasing emergency department visits, as well as reducing the cost of care through better management of chronic disease [1][2].<\/p>\n

Every year, chronic condition management represents 90% of healthcare expenditures in the USA [3]. Philips Virtual Care Management\u2019s condition-specific protocols now include diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, chronic kidney disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), as well as gestational programs for diabetes and hypertension. These protocols combine with connected devices and engagement tools on a secure, interoperable cloud-based platform to deliver rich data and actionable insights that enable timely intervention and workflow efficiencies. Licensed clinical professionals offer monitoring and personalized health coaching; and Philips\u2019 expert-led professional services round out the all-inclusive offering to help customers plan, customize, implement, activate and sustain each program.<\/p>\n

\u201cVirtual care is paving the way to meaningfully reduce the cost of care through fewer hospitalizations and emergency department visits,\u201d said Nick Wilson, General Manager, Ambulatory Virtual Care at Philips. \u201cCare providers and health systems today are often short on time and resources, accelerating the need to find new ways to gain visibility into patients\u2019 health amid an overwhelming variety of options. For patients, the opportunity to understand and take proactive control of their health can potentially lead to improved outcomes.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n Proven results<\/strong>
