Medical-Grade Wearable Provider Biotricity Aims to Increase Patient Adherence

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Jan. 26, 2018 -- Biotricity Inc. (OTCQB:BTCY), a medical diagnostic and consumer healthcare technology company dedicated to delivering innovative, biometric remote monitoring solutions, is poised to change cardiac healthcare into a preventive and cost-savings model that leverages precise biometrics and actionable feedback to motivate patient adherence. With increased adherence, the Company believes that patients with existing chronic conditions can better manage their health and prevent the onset of co-morbid conditions while facilitating a reduction in healthcare costs.

Biotricity is developing a spectrum of real-time and high-precision remote patient monitoring solutions (RPM). The company’s premier product, Bioflux, is a high-precision, single-unit mobile cardiac telemetry (MCT) device that provides real-time monitoring and transmission of ambulatory patients’ ECG information.

With shorter time gaps between follow-up appointments, RPM devices can increase patient adherence by shortening the feedback loop and enabling patients to take the necessary action to mitigate negative health outcomes.

“When patients can track their progress, and see how certain choices have a direct and positive impact on their health, they are more likely to adhere to treatment plans, engage in their healthcare, and change their behavior,” said Waqaas Al Siddiq, Biotricity Founder and CEO.

This kind of proactive approach to healthcare should also lead to a reduction in healthcare costs, both for patients and providers. Chronic conditions necessitate the kind of minute diligence and around-the-clock monitoring that an RPM device can offer; attempting to provide comparative in-facility care for chronic conditions only places an undue burden on an already over-taxed healthcare system. Many patients struggle to find the resources to visit a physician’s office for frequent and routine checkups, which an RPM device could provide accurately and conveniently at home. Biotricity’s development strategy for its RPM solutions is focused on enabling physicians and healthcare providers to receive reimbursement by using existing CPT codes to bill for the company’s solutions.
