Global H.O.M. Business Model
Executive Summary
Global H.O.M. Care Health Systems, Inc . (GHCS) is a start-up business venture that is developed around the introduction of a new assemblage of medical equipment called the Hospital Outpatient Module (H.O.M.) The H.O.M. equipment is a mobile "hospital room" that is designed to be delivered to the patient's residence or other on-site locations. The mobile unit is designed with three basic models (model A, B, and C). The principal model contains three sections that incorporate a comprehensive inventory of medical apparatus and supplies, including a fully automatic and adjustable electronic bed ("the e-bed") with built-in Internet and satellite communication systems that allow constant observation and interaction with the patients. Personal life-sign monitors that are connected to the "e-bed" allow audio and video observation and interaction with the patient around the clock. The H.O.M. is constructed to facilitate the ease and mobility of patient care at the home site.
As a parallel and integral feature of the Global H.O.M. equipment, a "caregiver service" is an important component of the business model. A staff of health caregivers will accompany the placement of each H.O.M. unit. Depending on the patient's needs, a trained health caregiver will accompany the H.O.M. unit, and will provide average-daily support and care to the patient. A private physician will visit each patient at least one day per week. With the use of a uniquely designed web cam, audio and video conferencing is controlled and maintained by a central monitoring center (the Central Monitoring Center-CMC) that will maintain constant observation and monitoring of the patient's life-signs. Health professionals will be able to monitor the entire range of life-signs from anywhere on the globe.
Following the development and production of a fully operational prototype of the H.O.M. equipment, a representative operation will be used to evaluate and modify the development where needed. During this R&D period, the company will measure and document the operation and the services prior to a nationwide expansion of the business.
