New telehealth program management tools, connected device integrations, and HL7 capabilities add to the company’s growing list of hybrid care innovations purpose-built to help healthcare organizations increase efficiency while improving patient and clinician experience.
EATONTOWN, NJ (October 30, 2023) – Caregility, an enterprise telehealth leader connecting care for patients and clinicians everywhere, announces the release of new capabilities as part of the company’s highly anticipated Cares 2.0 software series. The Cares 2.0 software enhancements introduce new telehealth program and device fleet management capabilities, peripheral device integrations, and interoperability standard options for more than 75 leading health systems that depend on Caregility Cloud™ (Best in KLAS virtual care platform; 2021, 2022, and 2023) to deliver their virtual care programs.
“Cares 2.0 marks the latest step in our unrelenting pursuit of virtual care applications that help healthcare teams improve process efficiency and positively impact care quality,” said Kedar Ganta, Caregility’s Chief Product and Engineering Officer. “We continue to explore new boundaries to offer patients and care teams innovative ways to transform inpatient care delivery in today’s changing landscape.”
Caregility’s iObserver application for continuous patient observation.

- Leverage HL7 and Smart on FHIR interoperability to seamlessly share patient demographic data between the EHR’s admission, discharge, and transfer (ADT) system and virtual care programs to save time and protect data integrity.
- Enable virtual encounters between patients and remote caregivers via a wider range of Interactive Patient Console (IPC) systems to offer easy bedside access to remote support and improve patient engagement.
- Bring connected care devices such as digital stethoscopes into virtual care sessions to enhance what clinicians can assess remotely in inpatient, outpatient, and home settings.
- Create virtual breakout rooms for various clinical workflows, including educational sessions with a large number of participants.

- Generate insightful program utilization reports to cost-justify and inform virtual care program expansion plans.
