Philips Wins Eight-Year Stockholm Home-Care Monitoring Deal for 15,000 Patients

PHGPHG

Philips-led consortium selected by Karolinska University Hospital for an eight-year contract to deliver advanced home-based remote monitoring for up to 15,000 complex and chronic patients annually in Region Stockholm. The program integrates Philips’ monitoring systems with Cuviva’s IT platform and Vingmed’s ECG, blood pressure and oximetry devices.

1. Contract Award and Scope

Philips and its consortium partners secured an eight-year tender to support Region Stockholm’s hospital-at-home initiative, extending hospital-level care into patient homes. The program is designed to monitor up to 15,000 complex and chronic patients each year across a population exceeding two million residents.

2. Consortium Roles and Collaboration

Philips contributes its global expertise in patient monitoring, interoperability and data integration. Cuviva provides the secure, scalable IT platform for digital care pathways and communications, while Vingmed supplies and manages clinical measurement devices such as ECG, blood pressure monitors and pulse oximeters.

3. Technology and Care Delivery Model

The solution enables continuous monitoring of vital signs including waveform data like ECG and oxygen saturation, with near real-time data access for clinicians across hospital and primary care settings. It also supports video consultations, secure chat and structured care pathways to detect clinical deterioration early and facilitate direct patient-clinician interaction.

4. Strategic Impact for Philips and Healthcare

This region-wide deployment positions Philips at the forefront of connected care solutions in Europe, addressing rising demand from aging populations and workforce shortages. The initiative is expected to strengthen Philips’ connected care segment, generate recurring revenue streams and reduce pressure on hospital infrastructure.
