HealthPia America

Healthpia America introduces the world’s first, all-in-one, glucometer cell phone and service for managing diabetes remotely. Whether you’re a guardian, physician. or healthcare institution, you can provide 24/7 support and emergency intervention to Diabetes Phone subscribers – anytime, anywhere. It’s a full disease management system.

Situation

Medical expenses for people with diabetes are over $13,000 per person per year, while expenses for those without diabetes are under $2,700. The staggering difference in amounts is mainly due to complications from diabetes.

Solution

A prevention of complications can be accomplished by intervention and effective care. HealthPia’s Diabetes Cell Phone helps a patient comply with a physician’s instructions by providing a programmed educational alert wirelessly via a cell phone. The data measured is automatically stored in a central center which connects to the caregiver, the physician and/or the disease management provider in real time.
