Summary
Cedars-Sinai is expanding its digital care capabilities for Parkinson’s disease patients through a specialized monitoring app, funded by a $5 million donation from the Elaine and Eduardo Saverin Foundation. The app allows patients to report symptoms such as tremors and cognitive changes, with the data integrated into the electronic health records (EHR) for real-time clinician alerts. This initiative is set to enhance care for over 800 patients, supporting timely interventions that could improve outcomes. Additionally, the funding will bolster staffing and infrastructure, highlighting the importance of technology in personalized patient management and proactive healthcare delivery.
