Durham, NC-based Validic is integrating mobile Bluetooth and Apple Health into its existing digital health integration platform to provide its growing network of clients access to all forms of relevant data needed to improve care and reduce costs. The integration will allow Validic’s clients the ability to embed digital health data – from Bluetooth Smart-enabled clinical devices and Apple Health – directly into their own mobile apps.
Clinical Bluetooth Smart library
By adding Validic’s clinical Bluetooth Smart library to an iOS or Android mobile app allows users of that app to securely connect their Bluetooth Smart-enabled clinical devices and easily share that digital health data with their healthcare organization.
Apple Health Library
Adding Validic’s Apple Health library to an iOS mobile application provides a simple, secure way for healthcare organizations to access the breadth of digital health data captured by Apple’s Health application. This enables healthcare providers to focus on their strategic initiatives while Validic handles the intricacies of the Apple HealthKit application program interface (API).
