A South Africa based Quro Medical is a digital health startup that uses artificial intelligence and technology to offer home-based medical care. Recently they have raised $1.1 million in a seed funding round.

Speaking on the investment for Mohau Equity Partners, CEO Dr Penny Moumakwa said, “We are very excited to be invested in Quro, they are a dynamic management team, building out a global medical solution, that will showcase the ability of entrepreneurs on the African continent in advanced digital healthcare.”

In the year 2018, Quro Medical was founded – with the aim to manage acutely ill patients in the comfort of their homes with the combination of hardware, software and the expertise of traditional doctors.

Partner and CEO at the firm Mr Mike Mompi said, “As our collective healthcare systems struggle to care for patients beyond the walls of a hospital, which we’ve seen exacerbated with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, remote patient monitoring and healthcare delivery will undoubtedly form a core part of the lasting solution.”

Quro is an AI-based healthcare company leading premium hospital at home services in Southern Africa. With a strong personal touch, they combine cutting edge technologies to deliver unique healthcare solutions to their patients.

How can you build a remote patient monitoring startup, like Quro health?

Hire a technology partner to design and build a secure and user-friendly cloud-based application. Such an application should authorise medical personnel to monitor the vital signs of their patients remotely.

Not all population is tech-savvy. Make sure that the app keeps the user interface simple and has simple navigation options.

Integration with the security system is a must. When developing an RPM solution, some of the names that should be on your list are HIPAA, HL7, FDA, SOC2 TYPE 2, ISO 27001, IEC etc.

To know patterns and trends in the health of patients – Business Intelligence Tools and Data Visualization Techniques – should be employed in the app. It helps doctors to understand the risk and make better treatment decisions.

To avoid battery drainage and decrease memory consumption – limit background processes, enable Bluetooth low energy to connect to the health trackers and wearables, use dark mode and notify users when data collection or transmission is lost.

Enable Geolocation or voice commands to boost user experience. It will help your patients to find the nearest clinic or pharmacy in case of an emergency.

Now you have everything in your app to give your patient a satisfied care experience.

But always remember that only launching an app is not just enough. You need to monitor the app performance, identify the issues, troubleshoot the problem and make necessary updates as and when required.

Keep tracking user feedback and subsequently add or remove or update the features. Also, get updated with the changes in law and regulations for long term solutions.

With all such information, we can conclude that remote patient monitoring solutions in the healthcare market are the fastest gaining momentum and are the next big thing in the healthcare industry.
