How does BioT protect my patients’ privacy?

As a platform for IoMT (Internet of Medical Things) devices, privacy is the highest priority in each feature of the platform. BioT encrypts and deidentifies PHI as needed, makes sure nothing slips to ancillary data stores like log files, and guarantees data privacy through HIPAA BAA and GDPR DPA agreements. BioT also includes specific regulation enablement features such as consent management, audit logs, and the compliant multi-region data-routing service.

Which connectivity technology should I use (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Cellular) to communicate with BioT?

A million-dollar question! Unfortunately, there is no single correct answer. For home-use devices, most of our customers prefer to utilize BLE from the medical device to a Phone as a Gateway. Cellular (mainly 5G) is also a great option, providing incomparable ease of use, especially for the elderly, but you need to bear in mind the coverage and global deployment issues. We would be more than happy to learn about your needs and to give advice based on our experience.
