Kinetik Wellbeing is collaborating with NHS’s Monitor My Health to provide at-home blood test kits to help people better monitor their health at home.
Monitor My Health, a not-for-profit venture, was launched by the Royal Devon and Exeter NHS Foundation Trust (RD&E).
The collaboration means people with health concerns can have their blood checked by NHS Labs. Tests include a Covid-19 Vaccine Immunity and Antibody Test, a full screen test (including diabetes, Vitamin D, cholesterol, and thyroid), and a healthy heart test, among others. Results are available via a personalised online portal within 24-48 hours of the sample being received by the laboratory.
Commenting on the collaboration, Adrian Harris, chief medical officer at the Royal Devon and Exeter NHS Foundation Trust, said: “These tests put patients in control through fast, accurate, NHS-approved test results, helping to identify health issues in order to try and prevent them getting worse.
“The Monitor My Health initiative is not-for-profit, and money from commercial activity is re-invested into funding patient care in the NHS Trust.”
James Grover, director at Kinetik Wellbeing, added: “Our work with the RD&E’s Monitor My Health service empowers patients to better manage their health at home, and gives them peace of mind that the tests are reliable and conducted in a regulated environment.
“At Kinetik Wellbeing, we are passionate about providing affordable, accessible, and reliable products that give patients the information they need to live well. We are thrilled to be partnering with the Monitor My Health team to continue this mission.”
