PatchRx and ChartSpan Partner to Provide Preventative Care Services to Health Systems

Greenville, SC — July 31, 2024 — PatchRx, the company revolutionizing patient care through its patented medication adherence technology, and ChartSpan, the largest full-service Chronic Care Management (CCM) organization in the U.S., have partnered to recommend preventative care programs to health systems and practices.

PatchRx was founded in 2018 to address one of the most pressing challenges in healthcare today: medication adherence. The company’s patented, smart pill-bottle technology has gained widespread adoption, improving care outcomes for thousands of patients across the U.S. The unique cap fits on the underside of any size pill bottle, gathering information securely for the patient and the patient’s care team. This technology can be used as part of Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) and Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM) programs.

ChartSpan serves 20% of all Chronic Care Management patients in the U.S. In addition to full-service CCM, they offer Annual Wellness Visits, assistance with quality measures and closing care gaps, and other forms of care management. Every month, a team of dedicated care coordinators help patients set care goals, refill medications, schedule appointments, find community resources, and access nurses via a 24-hour phone line.

“Effective preventative care must extend beyond a patient's visit to the doctor's office,” said Andrew Aertker, PatchRx CEO and co-founder. “But with so many disparate solutions on the market, implementing remote care technology is often a fractured and inefficient task. Through this collaboration, ChartSpan and PatchRx are empowering providers with the remote solutions they need to support any and all patients.”

With this partnership, PatchRx will recommend ChartSpan to providers who would benefit from care management, while ChartSpan will recommend PatchRx to practices employing RPM or RTM who are interested in medication adherence. 

“We’re excited to partner with PatchRx to better serve providers’ and patients’ needs,” said Christine Hawkins, CEO of ChartSpan. “This collaboration is another step in the journey to bring preventative, whole-person care to all Medicare patients.”
