The solution combines TytoCare’s FDA-cleared handheld remote examination device, the AI-backed Tyto Insights™ smart diagnosis support, and Tyto Engagement Labs™ to provide high-quality, accessible virtual care in the home and enable health plans and providers to deliver on expected ROI and drive improved health outcomes. The Home Smart Clinic is FDA-cleared to perform heart, lung (including AI-powered wheeze detection), throat, ear, and body temperature exams.
