Dementia and mild cognitive impairment are vastly underdiagnosed. Identifying cognitive issues early is the first step toward helping older adults get the care they deserve while also lowering the cost of care.
Neurotrack’s Cognitive Health Suite can meet the needs of providers caring for the 58 million U.S. adults who are age 65 or older. The company’s tools are currently in use in a variety of U.S. health systems and care delivery organizations, where teams are saving up to 10 minutes per patient using streamlined solutions for cognitive screening. These tools offer better sensitivity and specificity than traditional pen-and-paper assessments. They are also more efficient, score instantly and objectively, integrate with electronic health records, and require minimal oversight, enabling health care teams to work at the top of their license.
