Pre Series-A
Heart failure is a global epidemic, affecting more than 64 million people worldwide. Recent advances managed to decrease mortality, but hospitalizations are on the rise. Furthermore, the capacity for follow-up examinations is reduced due to limited resources in the healthcare sector. This not only leads to bad quality of life for patients, but also to increased health care costs for hospitals and health care providers.
ProCarement provides the app ProHerz, the first and only cardiological digital health application (DiGA) in Germany. ProHerz connects with monitoring hardware to collect patient data and classifies current state of health in a traffic light system. The costs of this app is reimbursed by health insurances.
For patients ProHerz is easy to use. Their doctors can see in real time how the heart problems of their patients are developing and can thus initiate adjustments in therapy i.e. medication, recommendations concerning nutrition, possible follow-up examinations etc. at any time.
ProCarement’s ProHerz is the first and only cardiological DiGA in Germany, which can thus be prescribed as an “app on prescription”. ProCarement is in the listing by the BfArM DiGA directory (bfarm.de) since mid-May 2023.
Cardiologists prescribe the app to their patients. A monthly fee (recurring) is charged for this, which is reimbursed by health insurance companies. The fee is currently 605€ per quarter for the first prescription, 495 € per quarter for follow-up prescriptions.
Currently, there are four million patients with heart failures/insufficiencies in Germany. Other countries in the EU (e.g. France, Austria) plan to adopt a similar legal regime as the German DiGA act.
