Virtual health monitoring
Communicare can be configured to integrate with virtual health monitoring applications such as My Care Manager (MCM).
MCM telemonitoring collects data, both actively and passively, from medical devices such as weighing scales, blood glucose monitors, thermometers, blood pressure monitors and pulse oximeters.
Observations recorded in MCM are
added to Communicare as investigation
results and appear in 
Documents and Results in the same way as results from a
pathology lab. If required, Communicare Support can configure Communicare to
automatically review results that are in the normal range for all patients. With this
configuration, MCM observations
are added to tab with a Review Status of
Reviewed.
Communicare remains the source of truth for patient details and updates MCM with any changes.
