Intelligent Product Solutions Partners with the DiMe Initiative to Advance Digitally Enabled at-Home Care

Intelligent Product Solutions (IPS), a product design firm, announced its partnership in the Advancing a Sustainable Hospital-at-Home Ecosystem at Scale (HaH) project to improve at-home, digitally enabled home care. 

The HaH project is co-hosted by the Digital Medicine Society (DiMe) and Consumer Technology Association (CTA), with UMass Chan Medical School’s Program in Digital Medicine as the project’s Impact Partner.  

The more than 20 partners participating in the project will work to define the elements and functionality of the hospital-at-home tech stack to scale the model’s availability and the adoption of the technology products and solutions that support it.

“We are thrilled to participate in this collaborative community to work towards impactful advancements in connected health and to improve in-home patient care,” said Brad Carlson, Vice President of Technology and Business Development at IPS.  “The potential safety, health, and economic benefits from in-home care are significant.”

“As an inaugural member of this project, IPS brings its medtech product design expertise to this pivotal moment shaping the future of healthcare and harnessing the power of digital innovation to create a connected, healthier world for all,” said Abby Sugg, Associate Program Director, DiMe.

Connected health offers the potential to maintain health and transform today’s sick care system into a healthcare system centered around the patient. Data shows that hospitals offering inpatient-level care at home have experienced reduced costs, improved health outcomes, and enhanced patient experiences. 

Digital technologies have the potential to maximize the effectiveness and accessibility of this approach. In addition, a hospital-at-home model presents a significant opportunity to innovate and contribute to a more efficient, patient-centered healthcare landscape.
