BioIntelliSense Teams Up with Hicuity Health for Scalable Continuous Patient Monitoring
BioIntelliSense, a leader in continuous health monitoring and clinical intelligence, has announced a strategic partnership with Hicuity Health, a leading provider of tech-enabled virtual care services. This collaboration aims to deliver a fully managed, end-to-end continuous patient monitoring solution to hospitals and health systems. The partnership addresses critical challenges facing hospitals, such as staffing shortages and infrastructure constraints, by providing scalable, technology-driven solutions that enhance in-hospital care, hospital-at-home programs, post-discharge care, and chronic remote care management.
This integrated approach combines BioIntelliSense’s FDA-cleared BioButton® device with Hicuity Health’s 24/7 virtual patient monitoring services. The BioButton® is a wireless, rechargeable wearable that continuously monitors vital signs and biometrics, capturing 1,440 measurements per patient every day. The data from these measurements is collected and analyzed by BioIntelliSense’s BioDashboard™, a clinical intelligence engine that generates algorithmic-based analytics and vital sign trends. This information is then securely monitored by Hicuity Health’s team of clinical professionals, who use predefined workflows and escalation protocols to support timely interventions and improve patient outcomes.
The combined power of BioIntelliSense’s technology and Hicuity Health’s monitoring services enables health systems to reduce the burden on on-site clinical teams while improving the quality of care and operational efficiency. With decades of experience in high-acuity patient monitoring, Hicuity Health provides clinical teams with actionable insights and workflow efficiencies, delivering over 11 million hours of patient monitoring annually across its diverse client base. This allows health systems to expand their virtual care programs, streamline clinical documentation, and ensure better patient outcomes.
Dr. James Mault, CEO and Founder of BioIntelliSense, highlighted the significance of the partnership: “The integration of BioIntelliSense’s award-winning medical-grade solution with Hicuity Health’s expertise in patient monitoring services enables health systems of all sizes to deploy and scale continuous care programs. From in-hospital to home, this partnership addresses staffing challenges by offering a comprehensive, tech-enabled solution that promotes earlier interventions, better patient outcomes, and more efficient use of clinical resources.”
The BioButton® wearable device serves as the cornerstone of this partnership, continuously monitoring patients and automatically collecting data to track vital signs and biometrics. The data captured includes key health indicators like heart rate, respiratory rate, temperature, and blood oxygen levels, among others. The BioDashboard™ clinical intelligence engine then processes this data, providing clinicians with real-time insights into patient trends. This AI-driven system ensures that healthcare professionals have access to high-resolution patient data, empowering them to make informed decisions and intervene quickly when necessary.
Hicuity Health’s clinical teams, working around the clock, use this data to support clinical decision-making. They follow predefined protocols, alerting health systems about significant changes in patient conditions that require attention. This level of continuous monitoring allows health systems to intervene earlier, potentially preventing complications, reducing readmissions, and improving patient outcomes.
The partnership also plays a critical role in expanding virtual care programs. Health systems can now deploy remote patient monitoring solutions that offer high-quality, continuous care at home, creating a more flexible care model. For patients who are discharged from the hospital but still require monitoring, the BioButton® and Hicuity Health’s virtual care services provide a cost-effective and efficient way to track their health and prevent complications from arising.
Lou Silverman, CEO of Hicuity Health, emphasized the partnership’s impact on virtual care: “We are committed to transforming healthcare delivery through trusted, innovative virtual care solutions that scale to meet the needs of hospital systems nationwide. Partnering with BioIntelliSense allows us to bring unparalleled support, flexibility, and scalability to healthcare providers, enabling them to deliver the highest quality care to patients in hospitals and at home.”
This collaboration offers numerous benefits for healthcare organizations, particularly in addressing staffing shortages and operational inefficiencies. The combination of BioIntelliSense’s continuous monitoring platform with Hicuity Health’s virtual care services creates a comprehensive, tech-enabled solution that reduces administrative burdens, improves clinical workflows, and enhances the patient experience. By automating the collection of vital data and streamlining patient monitoring, healthcare providers can focus more on patient care and less on administrative tasks.
BioIntelliSense’s Data-as-a-Service (DaaS) platform, with its suite of advanced technologies such as BioHub® gateways, BioMobile™ applications, and BioCloud™ data services, is designed to make continuous health monitoring reliable and scalable. The platform supports a wide range of care settings, from outpatient and emergency care to inpatient environments, ensuring clinicians have access to the tools they need to provide high-quality care.
