Technology designed to make it easy for
millions of patients to access the most effective
healthcare
NEW
YORK, May 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Ro, the
leading direct-to-patient healthcare company, today introduced the
Ro Operating System (ro.OS) – its technology platform delivering
seamless, high-quality care journeys for millions of patients. In
the making for over six years, ro.OS vertically integrates
nationwide telehealth, lab and pharmacy services powered by a
proprietary suite of applications, tools, and features. ro.OS is
built to help patients more easily and effectively achieve their
health goals.
"Today, high-quality care is a handmade luxury good. As a
society, the only way that we have turned luxuries that only a few
can access into commodities that everyone can access is through
technology. This is what we set out to do at Ro, to build
technology that makes it as easy as possible for millions of people
to access the most effective healthcare," said Saman Rahmanian,
Chief Product Officer and co-founder of Ro.
The ro.OS connects the core parts of the healthcare system
through four end-user applications:
- Patient App: The Patient App helps put patients in
control of their care every step of the way. It is a single stop
for patients to message a provider, report a side effect, track
progress, access medical records, and manage goals.
- Care Delivery App: The Care Delivery App is a provider's
homebase for effectively delivering, documenting, and monitoring
patient care. Whether counseling a patient, reviewing lab results,
or making changes to a treatment plan, providers benefit from tools
that surface the right information at the right time, scale their
expertise, and support the quality and safety of care.
- Pharmacy App: The Pharmacy App integrates pharmacists
directly into a patient's care journey so that they get real-time
patient insights and can proactively coordinate with providers,
identify potential safety concerns, and offer fast and reliable
nationwide medication fulfillment.
- Lab App: The Lab App integrates testing into a patient's
care journey, connects them with at-home or in-person options, and
offers automated results delivery. Together, this helps patients
get a full picture of their health and providers make more informed
treatment decisions.
The ro.OS, its four applications as well as the tools and
services housed within them, has already helped millions of
patients access care and delivered tens of millions of treatments
nationwide.
"The healthcare system is rightly obsessed with quality of care,
but doesn't do as well making it available to everyone who needs
it. Too many patients lack convenient access, or any access at all,
to care that can help them effectively achieve their health goals,"
said Dr. Melynda Barnes, Chief
Medical Officer of Ro. "In the ro.OS, we built technology to make
high-quality care easier at every step of the journey millions of
times over, from a patient getting a lab test, to a provider
navigating an EMR, or a pharmacist filling a prescription."
Ro's team continues to add to and strengthen the ro.OS suite of
applications and features. This work is supported by clinical
evidence and research, ongoing patient feedback, and insights from
Ro-affiliated providers, as well as Ro's network of expert clinical
advisors. Learn more about the ro.OS and stay up-to-date on the
