SuperCare Health Partners With Optum To Create A COVID-19 Telemonitoring Program
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, SuperCare Health and Optum collaborated to create a COVID-19 Telemonitoring Program that allows symptomatic individuals to be monitored and to recover in their homes, avoiding unnecessary hospitalizations. According to Curtis Sather, M.D., medical director and pulmonologist at Optum, SuperCare Health was contacted in the early stages of developing the COVID-19 monitoring program, knowing close respiratory monitoring would be vital in setting up alternative care for people who were confirmed for, or potentially had, COVID-19 but didn’t require hospitalization.
