Cedars-Sinai Hospital is using Apple's CareKit platform as part of their Safe Transition Home initiative, aimed at reducing readmission rates and avoiding CMS penalties. Under the scheme, a licensed and trained post-acute caregiver sends real-time data, including home safety and patient health information, via the CareKit platform to case managers and even family members. The system also includes an app that allows patients to access information about their care from any device they choose.
