Better Lives with Care.Wallet: Cardiovascular Disease in Thailand

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) has become a leading cause of death and disability in Thailand. A recent study shows that Thai healthcare providers pay $237 million on CVD treatment annually. In addition, the Thai National Health Security Office reported that the number of hospital admissions for CVD has tripled since 1992. The increase is attributed to population lifestyle choices, lack of patient education, and incomplete patient data.

The age group with the highest risk for CVD is typically older parents with busy schedules. Understandably, lifestyle changes can be difficult. To prevent heart disease, these parents must monitor their diet and keep track of any new medications. Sometimes, it can be hard finding time to cook healthy meals or keep a balanced diet. Simple reminders from family members or a doctor to cut back on certain foods or to take medication can help make the journey to a healthier lifestyle easier. Keeping a healthy heart is easier when a family works together. Finding the time to make all these changes can be challenging and require the support of close friends and family.

Solve.Care has designed Care.Wallet to keep all patient information and tools in one place. Inside the Care.Wallet, patients can find their prescriptions, appointments, and the How Are You Feeling Today (HAYFT) Care.Card (https://t.me/SolveCare/137296). With the HAYFT Care.Card, doctors, family members, and others can track a patient’s health conditions, and provide recommendations accordingly. The group of trusted people is the patient’s Care.Circle. This allows data to be synced with doctors and loved ones of the patient’s choice. As a result, the Care.Circle offers a unique way to help those closest to the patient work toward the common goal of keeping them healthy.

With solutions like these, Solve.Care is revolutionizing healthcare technology and is empowering patients and their families to take control of their cardiovascular health.
