News in Summary
KITCHENER, ON / ACCESSWIRE / October 12, 2022 / Cloud DX (TSXV:CDX)(OTC:CDXFF), announces an expansion of the previously announced Community Paramedicine for Long Term Care deployment with Oxford County Paramedic Services with the order of an additional 160 Connected Health™ kits and patient accounts. Cloud DX's award-winning remote patient monitoring platform enables providers to establish deeper community roots and maintain funding levels, while community members benefit from greater access to much needed care.
This new agreement expands Cloud DX's original contract with Oxford County Paramedic Services to provide remote patient monitoring to more patients throughout the county until March 2024. Oxford County Paramedic Services has purchased 200 Connected Health™ kits and related subscriptions on contracts totaling up to ~325,000 CAD. Funding for the program comes from the $82.5M Community Paramedicine for Long Term Care program announced last year by the Ontario government and from Ontario Health through the Remote Care Management and Surgical Transition Funding.
Oxford County Paramedic Services Superintendent of the Community Paramedic Program, Joe Vandermeer, says "The success of our initial deployment proves our residents are eager to embrace remote patient monitoring. Cloud DX helps us meet the growing demand for remote monitoring in our vulnerable populations. With Connected Health™, we are experiencing fewer unnecessary calls and reducing avoidable ER visits, alleviating some stress in the overburdened 911 and healthcare systems. Thanks to Cloud DX, enhancing and expanding our use of healthcare technology, we are able to focus more directly on patient care. Connected Health™ gives our elderly or high-risk residents peace of mind as they feel more supported in their healthcare journey. This is what Community Paramedicine is all about."
Cloud DX COO and co-founder, Anthony Kaul says "Cloud DX is fast becoming the virtual care platform of choice for Ontario's expanding Community Paramedics programs. We're thrilled to have been able to launch Oxford County's virtual care and remote patient monitoring program and we look forward to providing additional support to chronically ill and other at-risk patients in that community and communities throughout Canada."
