Data Collection

Vivify Health collects your health-related information through questionnaires and biometric entries on devices in medical kits provided by your care provider. The device can be a Vivify Pathway Home Kit or Vivify Pathways Go (using your existing mobile device). The patient using the Vivify Pathways program connected to their healthcare provider, understands that the healthcare organization may collect, store, process, maintain, share, disclose, use, and transmit your health information including, but not limited to the information concerning the assigned device or characteristics of your mobile device along with any peripherals used for the purpose of managing your health biometric, as well as your personal information, location and other content.

Vivify Pathways collect health information automatically using health kit peripherals (Bluetooth) or entered manually by the patient.

Once collected and submitted, your health information is transmitted to a secure server, and it is not stored on the device.

Data Usage

The information is used by your Care Team member to manage your health plan. Only biometric data provided by you and your responses to the Pathway questions are stored in Vivify Health’s secured database.
