Cuviva, in cooperation with Philips and Vingmed, to deliver vital technology for hospital-at-home care for up to 15,000 patients annually in Region Stockholm
Philips-led consortium selected through Karolinska University Hospital-led Region Stockholm tender to deliver advanced remote monitoring for complex patients
Gothenburg, Sweden - Cuviva, a Swedish digital health company providing a scalable Hospital at Home platform, today announced that a consortium composed of Philips, Cuviva and Vingmed has been selected to support Region Stockholm’s hospital-at-home initiative, enabling hospital-level care to be delivered in patients’ homes across the region. The consortium was selected through a tender led by Karolinska University Hospital for an advanced remote-monitoring program serving patients with complex or chronic conditions.
The, up to, eight-year agreement will support care for more than 2 million people in Region Stockholm and the Region’s first region-wide hospital-at-home initiative, designed to safely extend hospital-led care into patients’ homes through a coordinated, multi-partner model. By combining advanced remote-monitoring technologies with digitally connected care pathways, the program enables patients across Region Stockholm to receive high-quality care at home while helping reduce pressure on hospitals and clinical staff throughout the region.
Delivering hospital-level care at home across Region Stockholm
Through this initiative, hospitals within Region Stockholm will be able to monitor patients with complex or chronic conditions safely and continuously in their homes, by enabling hospital-led clinical oversight through digital connected care. Many of these patients require continuous monitoring of key clinical parameters, including waveform data such as ECG, blood pressure, respiratory rate, and oxygen saturation. This data will be securely available in near real time to healthcare professionals across hospital and primary care settings throughout the region.
The solution also enables direct patient-clinician interaction through assigned care pathways, video consultations, and secure chat functionality, while tracking a wide range of vital signs to support ongoing assessment and early detection of clinical deterioration.
Implemented as a region-wide program, the initiative will serve patients across the greater Stockholm area and directly support Region Stockholm’s healthcare priorities - responding to rising demand from an ageing population, addressing workforce shortages, and ensuring equitable access to high-quality care in both urban and remote communities.
Accelerating a new era of connected care at regional scale
The consortium brings together Philips, Cuviva, and Vingmed - working alongside leading sensor and wearable technology providers - to deliver an advanced, patient-centered hospital-at-home solution at a regional scale. Cuviva serves as the core technology provider, delivering a secure, advanced and fully integrated IT platform that enables structured, scalable hospital-at-home care through digital monitoring, real-time communication, and seamless integration with the hospitals’ digital infrastructure. Philips contributes its global expertise in patient monitoring, interoperability, and data integration. Vingmed, a Nordic healthcare technology specialist, is responsible for the clinical measurement devices in the home – including ECG, blood pressure and pulse oximetry – and for the deployment and lifecycle management of this equipment across the region..
Together, the consortium will support Region Stockholm in realizing its vision for the future of care: extending hospital-level oversight safely into the home across the region to improve patient outcomes while easing the burden on clinicians and hospital infrastructure.
A model for the future of healthcare
“This collaboration represents a shift in how we deliver and experience healthcare in Sweden,” said Julia Strandberg, Chief Business Leader, Connected Care at Philips. “Together with our consortium partners, we’re combining digital innovation, clinical expertise, and remote monitoring to reach more patients, ease pressure on healthcare systems, and create a scalable model for connected, sustainable, patient-centered care across Europe.”
"We are immensely proud that Karolinska University Hospital and Region Stockholm have chosen Cuviva, Philips, and Vingmed as their partners in this landmark Hospital@Home initiative," said Henrik Cederqvist, CEO of Cuviva. "This procurement signals something significant: one of Europe's most respected health systems is leading the shift toward delivering advanced, hospital-level care in patients' own homes. At Cuviva, enabling exactly this kind of transformation is our mission. We are honored to provide the Hospital@Home platform that makes care at home safe, scalable, and data-driven. Together with Philips and Vingmed, we are building a fully integrated ecosystem — one that combines clinical excellence with cutting-edge remote monitoring."
