Doorstep Health ^Company

According to the CDC, chronic diseases cause a majority of US deaths & disabilities. Many are manageable, but patients are often overwhelmed by the lifestyle changes needed for recovery. While patients are treated in an acute setting, keeping patients home and preventing readmissions is vital for both population health and the economy. Patient & family involvement in home disease management is essential. Doorstep Health will provide recorded discharge instructions and actionable tracking tools that let patients monitor progress and share with family & providers if they choose. Tools will include a medication schedule, weight/fluid intake tracking, and followup reminders. Resources will include medication interaction information, dietary guidelines, and support networks. Integrated health based wearables and devices will further enable the patient to take control of their diagnosis. Doorstep Health aims to help patients stay healthy and to help providers by preventing readmissions.
