Four details:
1. The digital health company, called PatientOne, offers remote patient monitoring services. PatientOne was created by former Missoula, Mont.-based St. Patrick Hospital CEO Jeff Fee, Missoula-based Five Valleys Urology Administrator John O’Conner and software expert Erik Guzik.
2. Through PatientOne’s platform, patients will receive educational videos, texts and preparation reminders before surgery. Providers are notified when the patient checks tasks off the list.
3. The platform delivers information to patients incrementally instead of all at once. Otherwise, “all they hear is ‘womp, womp’ and instructions are hard to understand,” Mr. O’Conner told the Missoulian. He calls the tendency “Charlie Brown mode.”
4. PatientOne attracted its recent funding from Dundee Venture Capital and Revolution’s Rise of the Rest Seed Fund, as well as other investors.
