IT-enabled home diagnostic testing
Affinity Empowering, a vendor of occupational, behavioral and direct-to-consumer health services, has unveiled two new brands: Affinity eHome, which will expand the company’s at-home and near-home diagnostic-testing capabilities, and Affinity eCare, which will personalize and optimize the healthcare experience by helping individuals identify the appropriate provider for their needs.
Affinity eHome is designed to provide a streamlined experience for the consumer in need of diagnostic testing services. The brand will be run through Affinity’s HIPAA-compliant technology platform, Assure, which allows for appointment scheduling, secure messaging, results reporting, consent management, video/telehealth appointments and more.
Affinity aims for eHome to provide more than 300 different diagnostic-testing options to consumers, with the ability to either directly deliver those tests to a user’s home or to provide the user with information about local medical providers with the ability to perform the testing service needed.
Affinity eCare is designed to synthesize patient health information into meaningful outcomes. This information, including reports from trusted providers and diagnostic results from Affinity eHome testing, can be used to identify the appropriate specialists for a patient’s health needs.

To best serve patients, eCare team members are also able, with consent, to communicate up-to-date treatment information between different healthcare providers, ensuring that each is as informed as possible.
“Affinity eHome and eCare were created with the idea that every person deserves the right to better understand their own health,” said Michael Tkach, chief behavioral health officer and COO at Affinity Empowering. “eHome will empower individuals to navigate their personal health-and-wellness journey with confidence and convenience, and eCare will empower them to take that next step towards finding the best possible care.”
