Clinication’s patient adherence system reminds, instruct, and even reward patients engaged in self-administered health programs to ensure they adhere to prescribed medication and self-care programs.
The system uses a combination of HIPPA-compliant web, mobile, email and instant messaging to provide self-management clinical information interfaces for patients.
Los Angeles, California-based AssistMed develops online transcription and electronic health record application services used by doctors, hospitals, payers, and research organizations.
The company said its acquisition of Cary, North Carolina-based Clinication will further enhance its patient-centric model and helps to guard against patient non-compliance with self-care health programs – a problem that is estimated to cost health insurance providers and pharmaceuticals firms more than $100bn in the US alone.
