Vensa Health is gearing up for the launch of version 4.0 of its TXT2Remind practice-patient messaging system, which has five new features that the Auckland-based company hopes will automate most if not all routine communication to patients.

The company is also planning to use some of the funding it received through a Callaghan Innovation growth grant to begin building new technology for the nascent “health care home” or “medical home” concept that four of the largest PHOs have recently submitted to the Ministry of Health.
