In a country with great distances, there is a need for patients and people with chronic diseases living at home, to be followed up no matter where they are. Remote patient monitoring is a service for people who receive health care from a health organization, such as a municipality, a hospital or a GP, and gives you an easy and safe opportunity to keep health personnel continuously updated on general health, special symptoms and other relevant health information. You as a patient will have an agreement with the health organization about use of the service.

For you as a patient, the remote monitoring consists of a mobile application that you can install on any mobile phone or tablet, and you may also have one or more medical sensors to measure vital data such as weight, heartrate, blood pressure, temperature or blood sugar as part of the follow-up. The mobile application and sensors cannot be used until you are registered as a patient by the health service that is responsible for your treatment and follow-up.

The most important functions of the mobile application are;

• Individual plan for self-reporting questionnaires and measurements

• Access to all the data you have submitted

• Access log with an overview of who has used access to your personal data

• Secure chat with healthcare professionals at the health service

• Access to documents that healthcare professionals have shared with you

The healthcare professionals use another application that provide their needs. In this application they receive the information you have submitted, evaluate the information, and if needed, initiate extended follow-up.
