CollaboRhythm

CollaboRhythm is a technology platform that enables a new paradigm of healthcare delivery; one where patients are empowered to become active participants and where doctors and other health professionals are transformed into real-time coaches. We believe that this radical shift in thinking is necessary to dramatically reduce healthcare costs, increase quality, and improve health outcomes.

The foundation of CollaboRhythm is a speech- and touch-controlled collaborative interface for the office where doctor and patient make shared decisions. Patients can actively engage with their data, so they can take action in their lives with doctors serving as coaches rather than commanders.

Thus far, the capabilities and features in CollaboRhythm have been focused on chronic disease management, with a specific focus on hypertension (prototype evaluation study conducted at Mayo in August 2011) and diabetes (for an upcoming study with the Joslin Diabetes Center).
