Business Wire
What’s the news: T-Mobile and Zyter are partnering to
bring virtual healthcare solutions — including telehealth and
remote patient monitoring and care team collaboration — to more
healthcare organizations and their patients, providing access to
virtual care for underserved communities.
Why it matters: Telemedicine is not readily available to
millions of Americans, and the two companies are working together
to address this.
Who it’s for: Healthcare delivery organizations.
Today, T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) and Zyter, Inc. announced a
preferred partnership to deliver virtual healthcare solutions —
including telehealth and remote patient monitoring and care team
collaboration — to more healthcare organizations and their patients
across the U.S. Together, the companies are making virtual care
more accessible to more people, which serves to improve patient
outcomes, reduce readmission rates and increase overall patient
wellbeing.
Since COVID-19, there has been more demand than ever for virtual
healthcare. According to IDC1, 51% of U.S. consumers are concerned
or very concerned about going to a healthcare facility.
Additionally, the Federal Communications Commission has reported
that more than 18 million Americans do not have access to
high-speed broadband networks. By partnering with T-Mobile, Zyter’s
award-winning Digital Health platform — Zyter Digital Health
Platform and products including, Zyter Telehealth, Zyter Remote
Patient Monitoring and ZyterHome™ — will reach more people over the
nation's largest, fastest, and most reliable 5G network.
“We believe that every American has the right to quality
healthcare that is safe and secure,” said Mike Katz, EVP, T-Mobile.
“By partnering with Zyter, we can outfit healthcare organizations
of all sizes with solutions that reach more people and enable
faster and more reliable virtual care through familiar devices like
smartphones and tablets.”
Under the terms of this agreement, Zyter and T-Mobile will
collaborate to deliver integrated healthcare solutions to existing
and potential T-Mobile customers nationwide. Together, the
companies will enable healthcare organizations to provide patients
with remote and secure collaboration with care teams who can
monitor, diagnose, and remotely treat patients anytime, virtually
anywhere, using the T-Mobile 4G LTE/5G network.
“This is a significant agreement for Zyter as it enables us to
leverage the vast resources and footprint of T-Mobile to make our
digital health solutions more accessible to more patients,” said
Sanjay Govil, founder and CEO of Zyter, Inc. “By working together,
we can help organizations improve patient satisfaction while
maintaining care quality and lowering costs.”
These solutions are already available for integrated delivery
networks, life science companies, hospitals, health systems and
payer organizations around the country, and with T-Mobile, more
healthcare providers will be able to quickly scale and deploy these
virtual health solutions to ensure that more Americans have access
to quality care, in the safety and convenience of their own
home.
