Biopassport Test Kit Integration
It is also worth noting that the advent of COVID-19 has familiarized more members of the general public with remote patient care. For example, the South Korean government employed mandatory usage of their quarantine tracking application, wherein users were expected to input their daily temperature and any signs of symptoms for the duration of their quarantine. Such modes of interaction regarding personal health can be expected to grow more and more common in the future.
The BioPassport platform is planned to integrate remote medical testing in the form of diagnostic test kits for COVID-19, and risk stratification or RS tests for lung cancer, and atopy. Users will be able to purchase these tests through a subscription based model. The test kits have currently been approved for distribution and marketing. The test kits themselves are designed to be easy to use and yield quick results. Users will be able to input the results which they receive from the test kits onto the BioPassport mobile application. BioPassport’s AI will then be able to make risk assessments based on user inputted data. Users determined to be at high risk of a respective disease will then be recommended to seek treatment at a medical institution. This allows potential patients to evade the costs and health risks associated with constantly having to receive tests and screenings at a medical institution, by giving them the information necessary to only seek medical treatment when they absolutely must. The data accrued over time will also serve as a useful timeline of the patient’s health for the health provider if the patient eventually does decide to seek institutional care.
