US-based non-profit healthcare system BayCare has partnered with Cadence, a company specialising in chronic disease management, to launch a remote patient monitoring and responsive virtual care programme.
The initiative aims to extend care to the homes of patients with various chronic conditions such as type 2 diabetes, congestive heart failure and hypertension, in Florida’s Tampa Bay and West Central regions.

It will leverage BayCare Medical Group’s clinical expertise and Cadence’s technology platform to offer proactive and preventive healthcare.
The partnership will allow patients enrolled with Cadence to have vital signs such as glucose levels, weight, heart rate and blood pressure monitored in real-time.
This data can then be shared with the patient’s primary care physician and Cadence’s round-the-clock clinical care team.
Cadence CEO and founder Chris Altchek said: “BayCare is one of the country’s most forward-thinking health systems, and we are excited to help them deliver proactive, personalised care from the comfort of their homes.
