BR HomMed, a Brazilian company offering a complete portfolio of Remote Patient Monitoring and Telemedicine solutions, has extended its partnership with Tactio Health Group adding close to one million Canadian dollars investment to support the growth of its remote patient monitoring programmes in Brazil over the next 5 years.

BR HomMed started early investing in the Brazilian remote patient monitoring (RPM) market along with Tactio Health Group supporting the specific technology requirements for the market. Now with a solid RPM offering, compelling value proposition that includes population health, screening, patient digital on boarding and remote monitoring programs, BR HomMed is ready to enhance its offering by further investing to support the next five years of growth. Tactio brings much more to BR HomMed than its genuine technological expertise and the Tactio RPM platform, it also shares business savvy in connected health programs, developed in other markets and profound mHealth experience with millions of health app downloads and multiple digital health patient programmes.

“Chronic diseases are as big of a problem in Brazil as they are in the US and Europe. It impacts 40% of the population, more than 57 million people in total, and accounts for 72% of mortalities. With the population aging, the strain of these conditions on our economy is expected to rise sharply. Our partnership with Tactio enables patients and service providers to benefit from a world class remote patient monitoring solution” said Giuliano Sant Anna, BR HomMed CEO.

And having ourselves several key Brazilians professionals in the Tactio Team has always helped in fostering the collaborative proximity despite the geographical distance. We share similar values and we’re both marathon type runners when it comes to engaging with the clients we service", said Michel Nadeau, CEO of Tactio Health Group.
