Abstract

A patient management system includes a scheduler (20) configured to schedule engagements with a patient in accordance with a care plan (18). The engagements include at least presentation of audio / video content. An audio / video presentation device (10) is configured to present audio / video content to the patient as directed by the scheduler. An input device (12) is configured to receive patient responses. A response analyzer (34) is configured to analyze at least one patient response to determine patient compliance with a goal of the care plan. An incentives rules engine (40) is configured to generate incentives based on the patient compliance. The incentives rules engine adjusts the generated incentives based on at least one additional factor to enhance motivational value of the generated incentives.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of medicine. It has particular application to remote patient management systems, but is more generally applicable to any remote patient / health care interaction system. Background technique [0002] Appropriate behavior modification is known to lead to improved efficacy of medical interventions and generally improved health. Such behavior modification can include, for example, improved diet, smoking cessation, regular exercise schedule, medication schedule, and the like. Unfortunately, the medical care model in most countries is not well suited to administering successful behavior modification. Patients may see their doctor infrequently, perhaps at most once a month or less frequently. People who do not receive treatment for a particular condition may visit their doctor less frequently. For example, in the United States, such a person may only have annual medical exams. [0003] Efforts have been made to d...
