Technology startup Diagnostic Robotics (Tel Aviv, Israel) has developed a triage and monitoring system to help healthcare providers, payers and government agencies in the fight against coronavirus (COVID-19). The tool aims to reduce health system overload by helping individuals determine the right course of action while minimizing direct contact with medical teams.

Diagnostic Robotics’ COVID-19 Remote Assessment and Monitoring tool is empowering providers, payers, and government agencies to respond digitally to the growing pressures of the pandemic. The solution includes remote patient progress monitoring, automated patient queries, provider-facing alerts about high-risk patients, and daily updates about the spread and progress of the disease at a community and regional level.

The COVID-19 Remote Assessment and Monitoring tool helps the health system in remote screening for concerned patients and reduce incoming inquiries at call centers from patients who have questions or concerns about potential COVID-19 symptoms. The platform can deliver personalized guidance to patients based on a thorough self-assessment and direct individuals to appropriate care settings - or advise them to stay home. Diagnostic Robotics provides a dashboard that enables remote monitoring and risk assessment of patients with COVID-19 symptoms by highlighting concerning changes in clinical status. The platform also enables monitoring the community for concerning trends or hotspots in coronavirus activity through the use of heat maps.

The Israeli Ministry of Health has developed a COVID-19 strategy which includes daily nation-wide monitoring of coronavirus related symptoms of the population using Diagnostic Robotics digital risk assessment and monitoring platform for COVID-19. The system, named COVID360, is integrated with all four of Israel’s HMOs and the Magen David Adom system and is available completely free of cost.
