But the pandemic messed it up further.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"color:#7b68ee\" class=\"has-inline-color\">During the pandemic time, kidney patients delayed the care to the extreme level as they had fear of catching the virus and no easy &amp; direct access to providers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Health agencies are anticipating that after cardiovascular diseases, diseases related to the kidney will soon emerge as the most common chronic illness.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"color:#7b68ee\" class=\"has-inline-color\">One way to manage chronic kidney conditions on a large scale is to increase the budget and run special programs.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"color:#7b68ee\" class=\"has-inline-color\">But increasing the budget will not help patients as it is not practically feasible to match the speed of increase in budget and increase in the number of kidney patients.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, running specific programs will not also prove impactful as it is not feasible to cover all patients with special programs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"color:#7b68ee\" class=\"has-inline-color\">So, when everything and everyone fails, technology comes to the rescue, like always.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because technology has the potential to reach a large number of people in a single shot.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"color:#7b68ee\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Talking about kidney care technology, a connected and virtual kidney care app is the most workable solution.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is why&#8230; \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Well, it puts both patients and providers in a win-win position by connecting them virtually and providing crucial medical data in real-time.\u00a0<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Its virtual care model makes kidney care more accessible, affordable and rapid than ever before.\u00a0<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Whereas, its connected care model makes kidney care outcome-driven and patient-focused with real-time vital body data availability.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h1><strong>Web or mobile apps for kidney patients: How does it drive the patient outcomes?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"color:#7b68ee\" class=\"has-inline-color\">The use cases of mobile or web apps in complex care delivery are game-changing and known to everyone, thanks to the pandemic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In several scenarios, a mobile app-based care delivery outperforms in-person care. The best example here is how a mobile app delivers 10X more convenience to the patients compared to in-person care.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"color:#7b68ee\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Especially patients having chronic conditions find mobile apps the most convenient medium as they can now get rid of the inconvenience caused by frequent travelling and waiting at the doctor&#8217;s clinic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This indirectly saves costs for patients while making them accessible to quality care very rapidly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"color:#7b68ee\" class=\"has-inline-color\">But talking about clinical outcomes of patients, well, a mobile app for kidney patients is designed and built with the purpose to enhance patient outcomes. Thus, the results are obvious.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, here is the thing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>A mobile app or online platform gives the rare opportunity to the patients to not delay care unnecessarily.&nbsp;<\/li><li>A mobile app enables patients to record and track their overall health and wellness.&nbsp;<\/li><li>A mobile app enables patients to receive medication at their doorstep.&nbsp;<\/li><li>A mobile app facilitates providers to have access to patients\u2019 medical records.&nbsp;<\/li><li>A connected mobile app actualizes remote care with continuous remote health monitoring and precise alerts to care teams.&nbsp;<\/li><li>A mobile app helps patients build up good habits and get rid of bad habits to increase their health and wellness scores.&nbsp;<\/li><li>A mobile app eases chronic care management at the doctor\u2019s front.&nbsp;<\/li><li>A mobile app performs many administrative tasks automatically which saves crucial clinical time.&nbsp;<\/li><li>A mobile app makes data management and data access more secure and instant.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li><li>A mobile app helps patients to find all nearby dialysis centers and book appointments seamlessly.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"color:#7b68ee\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Because of all these ways of how a mobile app for kidney patients enhances patient outcomes, it is undoubtedly the right investment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Earning possibilities: How to make money with a connected and virtual kidney clinic?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"color:#7b68ee\" class=\"has-inline-color\">The impact is real. But the question is, how to convert impact in revenue?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Possibility #1: Pay-per-visit model&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Launch your virtual kidney care service to individual patients and charge a fixed fee on every virtual visit they have on your platform.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For virtual visits on weekends and holidays, you can charge more.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Possibility #2: Subscription model for virtual kidney care&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Launch a subscription plan to attract patients already diagnosed with chronic kidney conditions. Offer them multiple virtual visits, monthly medication plans, personalized wellness programs and custom resources under a single subscription plan.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Possibility #3: Subscription model for connected kidney care<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have IoT-enabled connected kidney care technology, run a subscription plan for letting patients and doctors access remote patient monitoring hardware and software.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Possibility #4: Sell it under the SaaS model to hospitals and clinics&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a huge market. Sell your virtual and connected kidney care technology to hospitals and clinics under the SaaS model. They pay you a monthly fixed or usage-based fee and in return, they use your platform for providing modern kidney care to their patients.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Possibility #5: Bring it under a freemium model&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make it most feature-packed &gt;&gt; categorize these features into a basic feature and advanced feature categories &gt;&gt; let users use basic features for free but charge a fee for using advanced features.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a most tested monetization strategy!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Add these features to your platform developed for kidney patients and providers to deliver real value&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"color:#7b68ee\" class=\"has-inline-color\">The ultimate goal must be delivering real value to patients that they haven\u2019t yet found anywhere else.
