MillenniumIT ESP rolls out HealthVision, a remote patient assessment and monitoring solution, for well-respected, local non-for-profit MJF Charitable Foundation (MJFCF) established by Dilmah Tea founder Merrill J. Fernando.

The MJF Centres will be using HealthVision for their Disability unit which comprises of the Rainbow Centre and the National Centre for Children with Cerebral Palsy and other Developmental Disorders (NCCCPDD). For this project execution, MillenniumIT ESP is working with Microsoft Sri Lanka through their philanthropies arm who donated Microsoft Azure services to deploy HealthVision at MJFCF.

HealthVision is a web-enabled, mobile responsive, intuitive platform for medical personnel to connect with their patients remotely. At the MJF Charitable Foundation, HealthVision will enable medical personnel and caregivers to connect with children that have Cerebral Palsy and other developmental disorders from across Sri Lanka; record their current health, safety and risk details through a guided questionnaire; visually capture their expressions, symptoms and symptom history through video and audio recordings; provide home based therapies and care where applicable; and continue communications with them on a periodic basis to ascertain the status of their wellbeing.

The National Centre for Children with Cerebral Palsy and other Developmental Disorders at MJFCF serves as a national hub, offering various services such as education, therapy, training and counselling for children with Cerebral Palsy and other developmental disorders, as well as their caregivers, teachers and trainers who work with special needs individuals.

HealthVision will be powering ‘disABILITY’, the disability screening and management application of MJF Foundation, and the platform will be specifically connecting children with special needs and their families in Sri Lanka to MJF Centre’s services provided at NCCCPDD and via other partners across Sri Lanka; including Disability Screening, Developmental Screening, Child Reference to Pediatrician Diagnosis, Early Identification and Intervention, Free Multidisciplinary Team Support, Free Therapeutic, Educational and Rehabilitation Services, Free Mobility Aids Support and Child Progress Monitoring Follow Ups.

“It is with great pleasure that we partner with MJFCF to introduce HealthVision to Sri Lanka through a great philanthropic service,” stated Murali Prakash, Director - MillenniumIT ESP and Group Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer - Ambeon Capital PLC and Ambeon Holding PLC. “With the assistance of HealthVision, a remote monitoring e-solution, charitable institutions such as MJF Foundation can now monitor children in their care from a distant location expanding the reach of much need therapeutic services for children and adults who are differently abled.

The use of HealthVision further ensures the reduction of healthcare risks where deterioration in a patient’s health status can be brought to a provider’s attention early enough allowing proactive intervention and personalised care, thus assisting their caregivers, teachers and trainers who work with special needs individuals,” he concluded.
