Delivering Seamless, Responsive Care at Home: Chris Altchek, Founder and CEO of Cadence
On this episode of Raise the Line, we're going to learn about a company that sits at the intersection of three huge trends in U.S. healthcare: the unending growth in the number of people with chronic conditions, the advent of new virtual healthcare technologies, and moving more care into the home. And that’s just where the founder and CEO of Cadence, Chris Altchek, wants to be. “I’m very interested in how we can bring data from devices, wearables, and other sensors in the home and use it to help providers and health systems deliver world-class care outside the four walls of the hospital,” he tells host Shiv Gaglani. Coming from a family of physicians, and being married to one, he’s sensitive to making sure the company’s remote care management platform does not add to the heavy load clinicians are already carrying. “What we've tried to design is a model where Cadence can manage patients according to guidelines and protocols the physician approves and only escalate things that really require their attention. The routine day-to-day stuff can be handled by us.” Don’t miss this informative look at new ways of harnessing health tech to create what could be the future standard of care for chronic conditions.
