IoT firm KORE is working with Florida-based  hardware provider Social Mobile to meet the rigorous demands of connected health and remote patient monitoring (RPM).

The relationship leverages Social Mobile’s enterprise-grade devices, which are engineered for the needs of healthcare applications, and KORE’s IoT connectivity, facilitating seamless data transfer and real-time communications between patients and healthcare providers.

Unlike consumer-grade devices, Social Mobile devices are certified for global deployments and guaranteed to be available for a minimum of three years, enabling healthcare providers to standardise on a single product.

“People have always been at the heart of what we do at KORE, and the company is proud to blaze the trail when it comes to improving patient outcomes,” said KORE CEO Ronald Totton. “KORE’s connectivity, combined with healthcare-specific options made by Social Mobile, helps patients get better, more accessible care. We’re excited to continue enabling innovative connected health for our customers.”

One of the success stories of KORE’s relationship with Social Mobile is the transformative impact on Biofourmis (www.biofourmis.com), a specialist in RPM. Faced with the challenge of integrating various peripherals into a single, user-friendly platform for patient monitoring, Biofourmis turned to Social Mobile and KORE. Together, they delivered a turnkey offering that allows hospitals and medical institutions to provide remote patient care, potentially reducing the need for extended hospital stays.

KORE and Social Mobile will showcase these innovations, and more, at HLTH (www.hlth.com/2024event) in Las Vegas, taking place October 20-23, 2024.

“We are excited to work with KORE to showcase our combinations at the HLTH tradeshow,” said Robert Morcos, CEO of Social Mobile. “Together, we’re addressing the critical needs of the healthcare industry with purpose-built mobile devices and seamless connectivity, enabling advancements in remote patient monitoring and clinical trials. Our collaboration underscores a shared commitment to innovation and improving patient outcomes through cutting-edge technology.”

Beyond RPM, KORE and Social Mobile are poised to help their customers make strides in the clinical research sector. With the increased need for accurate and reliable data in real time, clinical research organisations are turning to KORE and Social Mobile for help ensuring data integrity and patient safety. By integrating KORE’s IoT connectivity with Social Mobile’s bespoke devices, clinical researchers can gather critical data with precision, enhancing the overall quality of clinical trials.

KORE (korewireless.com) is headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. Social Mobile (socialmobile.com) maintains offices, warehouses and facilities around the world, in addition to its head office in Hollywood, Florida.
