Tyto Care Receives Australian TGA Approval for Its AI-Powered, On Demand Telehealth Solution

Approval Will Enable the Leading Global Telehealth Company to Provide Australia's Health Organizations and Consumers with the Robust Telehealth Solution

NEW YORK,Sept. 1,2020 -- Tyto Care,the healthcare industry's first all-in-one telehealth platform and modular device for AI-powered,on-demand remote medical exams,today announced the approval of its telehealth solution by the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA). Tyto Care can now distribute its solution to health organizations and consumers across the country.

Tyto Care's TGA approval comes as the Australian Government has strengthenedtelehealth adoption,resulting in significant utilization increases: In the first month of the pandemic alone,care was delivered to more than three million Australian patientsthrough telehealth reforms introduced by the government. Between March to June 2020,Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) saw 17.2 milliontelehealth consultations,and more than 57% of healthcare professionalsare currently using a telehealth platform. Tyto Care will begin rolling out in Australia via partnerships with leading telehealth companies,health systems,and insurance providers.

"With government support in place,the Australian healthcare industry is accelerating telehealth adoption at a critical time for global health. We are proud to help pave a new path forward for healthcare delivery in Australia,providing care for as many patients as possible," said Dedi Gilad,CEO and Co-Founder of Tyto Care. "By enabling a physical examination that virtually replicates an in-person visit,Tyto Care will greatly enhance the ability of health organizations and consumers to connect for clinic-quality care from the comfort of home. We look forward to working with Australian care providers to deliver the best virtual solutions to their patients."

Tyto Care provides the critical missing link in the delivery of telehealth by going beyond audio and video capabilities. The handheld device and telehealth platform enable heart,lung,skin,ear,throat,and abdomen examinations,and measures body temperature and heart rate,allowing patients and clinicians to connect for primary and chronic care visits. The solution enables healthcare organizations to protect providers by reducing in-person visits,while allowing the general population to receive care without entering medical facilities,helping to prevent the spread of the coronavirus and significantly reducing the increased burden on already overworked health organizations.
