Since then, Sarah has only heard good news from Sheila and her monitoring devices. Sarah then contacted Aurora Pharmacy and changed the medication to home delivery. When Sheila saw a doctor and Sarah noticed her blood pressure was still elevated, Sheila told Sarah she had only picked up one of two new medications. "I wasn't feeling well, and I needed to go to the doctor. "When we spoke, I thought she had an appointment scheduled and realized she hadn't made one," Sarah shared. In a follow-up conversation, Sarah discovered Sheila had not followed up with her doctor since her hospital discharge and her blood pressure remained elevated. After reviewing Sheila's medications, Sarah learned she was scattering her medications in several places, including her pillowcase. Her journey highlights the benefits of Vivify's remote monitoring technology and the relationship she formed with her UnitedHealthcare Care Manager, Sarah Gibbs, a registered nurse who had 15 patients in the Vivify pilot.Īfter Sheila set up her Vivify kit, Sarah received an alert that her blood pressure was dangerously elevated. Sheila, a 62-year-old Medicaid member with COPD, participated in the pilot.
