A routine health screening at the pharmacy lead to a life-changing diagnosis

For Angelo, screening at the Higi Health Station was nothing new – he’s a regular at his Rite Aid pharmacy and is in the habit of using Higi to measure and track his blood pressure. His relationship with his pharmacist – and having access to a Higi Smart Health Station in that trusted setting – helped to get him the care he needed. When his pharmacist noticed his readings were out of range, Angelo and the pharmacist were able to sit down and talk about his health, leading Angelo to seek and receive care right away.

Over 60% of the users on the Higi platform have a health reading that indicates a care need.

  • For a pharmacy partner: The Higi Smart Health Station added value to every store trip for the patient and helped strengthen the relationship between patient and trusted pharmacy partner

  • For a health system partner: Health System partners have the ability to connect consumers to care resources, and in the case of Angelo, refer him to a cardiogist and receive his data longitudinally into an existing workflow for a better informed conversation, leading to diagnosis and ongoing care
