Tech Update

• HomMed (Brookfield, WI) signed a deal with Motorola (Schaumberg, IL) as its hardware provider for HomMed’s two-way wireless messaging. The system allows congestive heart failure patients have their daily clinical readings taken at home, then takes the data and transmits it to the HomMed Observer, which then receives, processes, and presents the data to heart clinic personnel on a computer. A two-way transceiver from Motorola will be placed in all HomMed Sentries so the data can be transmitted.
