Moma call center will provide unique service -Remote monitoring and support for mental health patients .The aim of this reserch is reducing hospitalization and improve adherence, by reaching out and there for monitoring very closely .
"Moma" call center is a result of collaboration between Maccabi Health Services and The Gertner Institute of Epidemiology and Health Policy Research. The call center provides remote continuous monitoring and support for patients with chronic illnesses, and has been found useful for improvement in treatment adherence and other clinical measures in patients with diabetes and CHF.
The current project focuses on patients diagnosed with schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder and bipolar disorder. Patients that suffer from these disorders are prone to low adherence and are at risk for discontinuation of treatment and frequent relapses.
The advantages of the "Moma" call-center include high availability, reaching out, collaboration between treatment centers and agents, and continuous remote monitoring. We hypothesize that these factors will enable improvement of support provided to these patients, early detection of their needs, connection with community care agents, monitoring of treatment adherence, and remote interventions targeted towards prevention of relapse.
