Program Components:
“The GoMo Health Medication Adherence Concierge Program interacts in real-time with our patients with chronic conditions, including those reliant on diabetic and cholesterol medication management, to monitor their use, manage refills and discuss complications as they occur. This in-the- moment communication has resulted in an increase in medication compliance and also helps our practices provide proactive care to avoid adverse events.”
Care Communications: Upon enrollment, participants receive text messages that nurture, guide, and support their chronic condition journey. Some messages contain links to online resources with additional educational information in the form of interactive surveys, videos, and music tracks (see Care Companion). Topics include medication education and alerts, condition management, nutrition and lifestyle education, and information for caregivers. Care Companion: This cloud-based learning management system (LMS) provides vetted educational content that is personalized by participants’ self-expressed priorities and interests, structured into easy-to-follow sections to promote independent education, learning, and self-care management. GoMo Chat: Much like a typical text conversation, GoMo (secure) Chat allows live messaging between participants and their care team, enabling in-the-moment, on demand conversations.
