AI Robotics Caregiver with Charles Gellman of HiDO Health

In this episode of the MedTech Impact Podcast, Charles Gellman, CEO and Co-Founder of HiDo Health, discusses the company's mission to eliminate medication errors in the home. Gelman introduces their AI robotic caregiver, a system designed to ensure patients take the right medication at the right time. Unlike existing medication adherence solutions that rely on patient self-reporting or simple reminders, HiDo Health's technology automates the process, knows the medication name, dosage, frequency, and count, and even records consumption. This approach aims to stabilize chronic disease, reduce hospitalizations, and improve the overall quality of care.Charles emphasizes that the device was designed with significant patient input, focusing on accountability and caregiver needs. The system uses existing pill bottles with a special cap containing an RFID chip, and incorporates face ID and video recording to confirm medication intake. This technology integrates data for both patients and providers, and early results show a substantial reduction in hospitalizations and cost savings. HiDo Health is partnering directly with payers to get the device to patients, and is focused on expanding awareness of the technology, so be sure to tune in, so you can be informed and inspired.
