Continuous Virtual Medical Care to be Provided to Regal Medical Group Commercial Members

Continuous Virtual Care at Home

 [MOORPARK, CALIFORNIA, NOVEMBER 21, 2022]  Guardiant Health  announces a new contract agreement to deploy our Continuous Virtual Care at Home to Regal Medical Group patients post hospitalization.  Patients at Risk for possible readmission or emergency care needs will have a dedicated licensed clinical team available 365 days a year and anywhere a patient may live within the Southern California region.   Designed for adults who desire the convenience, care, and expertise of a dedicated medical team proactively surveying the needs of members as their health needs or conditions change.   Backed  by an experienced medical, behavioral, and pharmacy team skilled in reducing the risks and complications of recovery from an acute hospitalization or illness that can result in worsening overall health or disability. 

Post-pandemic, the traditional delivery system still struggles to provide greater access and continuity for patients with complex medical and health needs. Patients recovering from acute illness or hospitalization require more active and frequent interaction with a skilled medical provider and team with the goal of recovery and reducing advancing illness.”
— Al Pita, MD, CMO of Guardiant Health

Most seniors who seek care in an office based setting , only see their primary care physician 3-4 times a year on average.  With limited time spent with their physician, patients' long term care goals and needs often are relegated to lowest priority during an acute visit.  By deploying passive digital and sensor capabilities into the home along with other lifestyle data, Guardiant is uniquely positioned to identify risks earlier and identify and treat issues proactively in the home setting without the need for a physical office visit.  Through  our “PERCH” model of caring for patients  (Proactive/Engagement Remote Care/@Home) and technology platform referred to as “NEST”  (Navigation, Engagement, Stratifcaiton, and Treatment), our Guardiant care team is able to create an evolving  life care plan and roadmap toward recovery, safety, and health at home..
