The unit will record weight, glucose levels, blood pressures, pulse oximetry levels and prompt patients to comply with the medication regimen.

The Health Buddy® telehealth system:

• Is monitored daily by a nurse, allowing early identifications and timely intervention if needed.
• Asks educational questions that help patients to better understand and manage their chronic disease.
