Success for Payers and Providers
Ray F. SSM Health
We have had multiple patients press their medical alert pendant after their heart stopped beating for a short time, and because this remote technology enabled them to receive timely care, they survived. It’s clear Connect America cares about the patient as much as we do. By working with a reliable partner, we’ve been able to collaborate and problem-solve when needed to ensure the best possible patient outcomes."

Utilizing RPM has made a meaningful impact on the lives of our patients, which is what we care about most. This technology allows us to provide considerate and timely treatment to patients that typically require a significant amount of care.
