Qualcomm Life
Qualcomm's subsidiary, Qualcomm Life, has been developing chronic care management IoT solutions to enable continuous care and informed interventions for patients.
Through a collaboration with medical group Davita Healthcare Partners and health monitoring solution provider P2Link, Qualcomm Life's 2net Device Connectivity Platform is implemented into a coordinated care program for patients with heart failure – so they are equipped with a home blood pressure monitor, weight scale and tablet to collect and transmit biometric data into the cloud.
In 2015, Qualcomm Life also acquired Capsule Tech, a company that helps health-care facilities collect and process data from medical devices, to bolster its IoT segment.
