Augustin Bernát, general manager for the Czech affiliate of ResMed, a company whose cloud-connected medical devices transform care for people with sleep apnea, COPD and other chronic diseases, discusses how their digital solutions are bringing benefits to both the patients and the payers in the country. Following extensive discussions, the key stakeholders are becoming more open to these digital solutions, such as ResMed’s recently launched myAir connected platform. Bernát walks us through the steps put in place to ensure a successful launch in the country, which continues to bring the treatment of sleep apnea away from hospitals and into the home, allowing healthcare systems to allocate resources in this area more efficiently.
I feel that the Czech affiliate could become a “testbed” for the company, as insurers and other stakeholders are starting to be open to discussions here, especially regarding digital solutions
