A White Glove Approach to Redefining Patient Monitoring

Alife of discipline’ would be an understatement to the ordeal faced by those ailing from chronic illnesses such as diabetes or hypertension. Despite remaining as cautious as one can be, something as trivial as an innocent slice of a birthday cake could drastically spike the patient’s sugar levels, potentially inviting untold health risks. However, technology has changed this perception. In the current day and age, not only are these diseases often preventable, but they are also fully manageable through early detection, improved diet, exercise, and timely treatment and medication. Having said that, an important question remains unanswered: why is the number of chronic conditions increasing?

Jeremy Steinmetz—CEO of SAS HealthTech—sheds light on this predicament through a recurring instance within the healthcare space.

“More often than not, patients suffering from diabetes or hypertension schedule periodic appointments with their doctors, sometimes once in three months, to keep their health in check,” says Jeremy. Any irregularities occurring between those two intervals often go unnoticed by the medical team, who are fully capable of remediating the health issue if appropriately informed. According to CDC, six in ten Americans have at least one chronic disease, and more than 40 percent of the population have two or more. People with chronic conditions are the most frequent users of healthcare in the U.S. They account for 81 percent of hospital admissions, 91 percent of the prescriptions filled, and 76 percent of all physician visits. The disparity between administering treatments and realizing positive outcomes can be addressed through patient monitoring technologies that facilitate a continual dialogue between physicians and patients alike.

“Monitoring a patient with such chronic diseases can turn out to be as important as timely medicating them, if not more,” adds Jeremy. However, several factors hinder a patient’s accessibility to monitoring solutions, from lack of awareness to convoluted care paths. SAS HealthTech fulfills this technological gap by equipping healthcare professionals with end-to-end solutions to integrate remote patient monitoring, chronic care management, and behavioral health integration. The company enhances the interaction between physicians and patients, thus paving the path for better outcomes.

Connecting Patients with Physicians

“With the evolution of remote patient monitoring (RPM) technology, the barriers of communication between patients and care givers are eliminated,” continues Jeremy. RPM enables physicians to track patient metrics consistently, even considering any fluctuations that can be observed in rehabilitation or during observation periods. Upon the detection of abnormalities, physicians can easily get in touch with the patients and determine the cause associated with the same as well. If needed, they can go on to adjust the medications at the same time. SAS HealthTech actualizes this sustained communication among all healthcare stakeholders, thereby ensuring that patients do not compromise on the quality of life.“Through our white glove remote patient monitoring solution, we make sure that patients, doctors, medical directors.

We enable the medical team to not only studythe trends of a chroniccondition effortlesslybut also empowerphysicians to administerthe appropriate care in atimely manner.

Tonurses and everyone part of the healthcare value chain are happy,” explains Jeremy.

As a pioneer of RPM solutions, SAS HealthTech is opening new channels of patient-physician interaction, easing the workflow of healthcare providers and improving the health outcomes of patients. Since physicians can quickly discover the health trends of their patients before they become health disasters, SAS HealthTech RPM program not only lowers the hospital readmission rates but also facilitates better ongoing care. Physicians are also provided the data required to re-evaluate medications, if and when required, to manage their conditions efficiently. On the other end of the spectrum, the solution enables patients to recover faster from the comfort of their homes, thereby boosting their morale and care satisfaction scores. More importantly, patients are provided on-demand access to the necessary resources to continue rehabilitation or recovery. As in our example of the birthday cake above, with RPM, we can prevent the effects of the problem before it becomes an emergency.

Utility of Remote Patient Monitoring

Jeremy attributes the effectiveness of SAS HealthTech’s solutions to the robustness of the underlying technology, which is directly connected to cellular enabled devices for tracking patient data. Cellular technology is a significant benefit as well as an effortless way to assist the aging population in monitoring their chronic conditions. SAS Healthtech believes that using cellular devices is the way to go and minimize the technological difficulties that patients could be faced with.


The data goes to the physicians through the SAS HealthTech software or is directly integrated with the clients’ EMR. Besides, the data from the monitoring devices are transmitted seamlessly in real-time, eliminating unnecessary delay and downtime. Patients are merely required to conduct the test by pressing a single button on any of our devices, the iGlucose, iBloodPressure or simply stepping on the iScale, ensuring that the data is automatically transmitted to the relevant physicians.

SAS HealthTech’s client onboarding processes are equally impressive and engaging. Once the clients have been briefed and have decided on implementing SAS HealthTech’s solution, the company proceeds to appoint a head nurse, who will be in charge of the remote monitoring program. During their scheduled walk-ins, the patients are briefed about the program, along with the cellular devices utilized to monitor their health. “We maintain a friendly, personal, and professional relationship with the patients, because we want to make their health journey as pleasant as possible,” mentions Jeremy.

As a result, SAS HealthTech has received enthusiastic feedback from numerous patients who have benefited from the company’s RPM program.
Jeremy credits his company’s success to his dynamic and irreplaceable workforce that has contributed significantly to the company’s growth.

“Particularly, Dr. Chaim GitelisCMO of the company, who plays a critical role in the medical operations and overseeing the success of the program,” he says Dr. Gitelis draws on his rich experience and specialty in cardiology to understand the specifics of chronic diseases being monitored and adequately assesses the next steps together with a patient’s primary care physician. He leads a team in SAS HealthTech to help physicians provide highly individualized advice and care, with a sharp focus on preventative medicine and solving acute problems. Alongside, Alona Aronov—COO of the company—ensures that the company’s day-to-day operations are seamless and productive. “Be it veteran doctors or personnel with less to no medical expertise, patient monitoring is greatly simplified through our solution. We enable the medical team to not only study the trends of a chronic condition effortlessly but also empower physicians to administer the appropriate care in a timely manner,” adds Alona.

Today, SAS HealthTech is indeed playing a proactive role in helping improve the lives of patients who have diabetes, hypertension, and other chronic illnesses. Along with home healthcare, the company also extends its services to nursing homes and rehabilitation centers, facilitating better access to preventative care for the elderly. “The goal of SAS HealthTech, in the end, is to ensure a pleasant and barrier-less path for everyone involved in the care journey, whether it is doctors, patients, or nurses. We are especially proud of our nursing staff, who continuously monitor the health readings of patients and convey crucial information to their primary physicians, making sure that the best care is provided when needed,” adds Jeremy.

This philosophy of ensuring that all healthcare stakeholders— from patients to caregivers, physicians, and family —are happy and well-equipped to mitigate the situation at hand resonates with the goal with which SAS HealthTech was established. Today, the company upholds this objective, charting the trajectory to help healthcare stakeholders attain a simplified, affordable and efficient patient monitoring system for all.
