Heart House New Jersey Launches Virtual Personal Concierge for Heart Failure Patients Using GoMo Health’s BehavioralRx®

November 7, 2018 (Asbury Park, New Jersey) – The Heart House, a New Jersey based cardiology practice, and GoMo Health today launched their digital Personal Concierge for patients with systolic and diastolic heart failure, including co-morbidities of diabetes, renal failure and smoking. The program integrates American Heart Association digital content.

The Personal Concierge ePRO system (electronic patient reported outcomes) uses GoMo Health’s BehavorialRx^® science to engage the patient and caregiver, helping them manage medications, cope with anxiety and stress, and manage their movement and healthy diet. It provides real-time triage and escalation to nurses based on patient responses or indications of weight gain, shortness of breath, edema and medication refill status. The program also personalizes and delivers timely care messages and how-are-you-doing surveys that guides patients in their health and wellness journey post-discharge from a hospital after their cardiac procedure.

BehavioralRx, part of GoMo Health’s Concierge Care® suite of telehealth care coordination solutions, integrates the Association’s digital care plans and educational content, bringing the lifesaving information directly to patients.

Also useful for those patients who participate in cardiac rehabilitation, the Heart House Personal Concierge reinforces activation of day-to-day protocols for a quicker recovery and to avoid unnecessary emergency department visits and readmissions, consistent with the value-based reimbursements and shared savings from Medicare and commercial payers.

“As a patient-centered practice, our cardiologists and nurses recognize that our patients’ lifestyles are disrupted and in transition post cardiac event or surgery.  As such, we are extending our care coordination to include the GoMo Health Concierge Care system to provide a day-to-day remote care management resource to assist them during this difficult period,” says Sanford Gips, MD, FACC, FSCAI, Managing Partner of The Heart House.

GoMo Health is a member of the American Heart Association’s Center for Health Technology & Innovation “Innovators Network.” Learn more at https://gomohealth.com/aha-collaboration/.
