We offer two-way messaging and make multiple attempts to find the patient when they do not respond. Patients can give permission to a back-up person (parent, friend, provider) who is automatically notified if the patient did not take the medication. Reminders also are sent by phone and email.

Text Messaging system is cool idea but like what Addiction Rehab said it should always be secure. Most people with HIV our shy so we need to make sure they are protected.

From my experience the text messaging system would of course need to be secure and HIPPA laws followed but this would provide possibly life saving reminders where other methods of communication might fail. however I do think the person would be given a barrage of options including email, text, automated phone reminder etc. This is important information to communicate and especially those addicted need the variety of possible methods of receiving the notification in case they are distracted or lost their phone etc.

Wed, 11 Feb 2009 12:54:04 +0000 http://production.aidsblog.icfi.com/?p=230#comment-432 Excellent information. Maybe more people will start to use automated messages for medication and appointment reminders. The cell phone is such a convenient device, why not put it to work for better health outcomes. Anyone can try the 30-day free trial plan at OnTimeRx. Secure online account gives password protected access (24/7) to manage alerts and store all personal health information online. Printouts are also available. Health care professionals can use this system for patients exactly as described in the article above.

Many people shy off when asked to get chkd for AIDS. And if they do they dread and sweat when teh report is to be recived. I once took a total check up and was like stunned to see that they had chkd for AIDS too. Nice thing that the doctors do chk for AIDS in total check up. But sometime people may feel too shy to take the test and this form of text messaging will surely help them out of te problem.
