Hero's Care Navigation solution is not a medical device.
Based on a patient's responses, a triage solution accredited as a medical device can make a recommendation - for example, that based on data inputted, a patient should seek urgent medical attention at A&E, or that a specific submission should be treated as 'high priority'. Technically speaking, triage solutions accredited as Medical Devices are able to assign specific clinical dispositions to a patient submission.
Hero's solution does not aim to do this. Hero's Care Navigation aims solely to capture information from a patient or proxy, for a clinician to review and assess. Hero does not automatically assign priority based on different types of data input or different disposition.
For practices looking for this kind of solution for medical enquiries, Hero's Care Navigation integrates with Klinik, who have a product that is a registered Medical Device - medical submissions can be directed to this solutions, whilst administrative queries can be funnelled into Hero's basic requests.
