WANDA signs contract with leading US home nursing and therapy
service provider, HRS, to provide better care for patients with
chronic conditions
London, UK - 4 January 2016 - NetScientific plc ("NetScientific"
or the "Group", AIM: NSCI), the transatlantic biomedical and
healthcare technology group, announces that portfolio company,
WANDA Inc. has signed a new contract with leading US high-tech home
nursing and therapy services group, Health Resource Solutions
('HRS'). The deal enables HRS to use WANDA's chronic condition
digital management platform to provide improved at home care to its
patients.
WANDA's technology interacts with patients living with chronic
conditions to intelligently detect vital sign and symptom
information. Proven machine-learning techniques analyse each
patient's information to enable them to better manage their health
with easy-to-use digital tools. WANDA also provides clinicians with
advanced decision support and collaboration tools, resulting in
interventions to reduce expensive escalations and
hospitalisations.
HRS is one of the most innovative and highly regarded home
health agencies in the Chicago region and typically looks after
over 1000 patients per month at any one time. HRS is certified by
the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the Community Health
Accreditation Program and by the Illinois Department of Public
Health to actively monitor and assist patients with chronic disease
to give them a higher quality of life at home rather than being in
a high acuity hospital setting. Wanda Health's solution will be
used with some of HRS's congestive heart failure (CHF) and chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients.
The contract has been made directly with WANDA, and the first
patients are expected to start using the platform and be billed on
a monthly basis in the first quarter of 2016.
Francois Martelet, Group CEO of NetScientific, commented:
"WANDA is a leading portfolio company for NetScientific and our
digital health franchise. Being selected by one of the leading
high-tech home nursing and therapy services group in the US is an
excellent endorsement of the potential WANDA's technology has to
help improve people's lives by enabling them to stay at home and
take more control to better manage their chronic conditions. "
