The Californer/10309212

SAN DIEGO - Californer -- Anderson Medical Supplies, Inc. (AMS), a leader in innovative workers' compensation healthcare solutions, in partnership with Sensoria Health, a pioneer in machine learning, artificial intelligence software, IoT accessories, and remote patient monitoring technology are proud to announce the launch of the SMART PLUG for Intermittent Cold Compression Therapy (ICCT) Remote Patient Monitoring System at the https://www.nextmed.health/innovation-lab.

The patent pending SMART PLUG system includes a newly designed hardware device, a recently developed mobile and cloud software, and a machine learning AI system designed to monitor and enhance patient care and improve clinical outcomes through seamless, real-time health monitoring for the workers' compensation market.

Currently, worker's compensation is providing benefits to injured workers without quantified outcome data or any knowledge of injured workers' rehabilitation journeys. There is no adherence data on the payor side and no accountability processes for workers to ensure that they are compliant with their rehabilitation programs.  This is the first ICCT system that reports in near real-time both patient adherence and usage to the user, the clinician, the TPA, and the insurer.

The SMART PLUG system integrates cutting-edge sensor technology with intelligent connectivity, allowing healthcare providers to remotely track patient health data.  This innovative solution is tailored for use in intelligent continuous care technology applications, ensuring timely interventions and improved patient safety.  By leveraging advanced data analytics and AI-driven insights, Smart Plug empowers medical professionals to make informed decisions that enhance patients' well-being.

The SMART PLUG is designed for ease of use and seamless integration with existing healthcare systems.  The SMART PLUG proprietary hardware monitors each worker's ICCT session and duration.  It sends data wirelessly to the patient's mobile app and the clinician's RPM cloud dashboard.  Key features include:

• AMS/Sensoria developed SMART PLUG; custom smart electric plug hardware with mobile and cloud software technology that monitors ICCT usage in near real-time.
• The dedicated mobile app software reminds the patient when they need to use ICCT therapy, the duration of the next therapy session, and provides the patient with behavioral feedback as to how they are progressing.
• The machine learning system records and monitors each completed session's data and other metrics such as pain levels, medication usage, recovery milestones, patient complications, and wound images.
• Clinicians, TPA's, and AMS support teams members have the opportunity to monitor adherence (session lengths and frequency of usage) remotely and patient's pain levels through a remote patient monitoring Microsoft Azure powered cloud dashboard.

"AMS is committed to advancing workers' compensation healthcare technology to improve patient outcomes by monitoring patient usage and adherence to clinician's prescribed protocol," said Kent Anderson, President and Owner of Anderson Medical Supplies, Inc. "Our partnership with Sensoria Health in developing the Smart Plug marks a significant step forward in remote patient monitoring. By providing real-time rehab adherence data and actionable insights, we aim to personalize the way employers, healthcare providers and insurers manage chronic conditions and post-acute care."
