A countertop clinical lab and telehealth gateway for the home

Households use the Hub to run common diagnostic tests and vitals checks with friendly, on-screen guidance. The goal: reduce guesswork, avoid panic, and standardize what “I tested at home” actually means.

• 10-inch touchscreen with clear, animated workflows
• Single-use cartridges and strips for multiple test types
• Integrated vitals: blood pressure, temperature, oxygen saturation, heart rate
• Plain-language explanations of what a reading or result means in context

Hub outputs are not meant to live in isolation. Results and context route to telehealth clinicians or provider teams, who make the actual clinical calls.

• Structured test events and vitals packets sent to telehealth clinicians
• Human verification before “fit for work / school” letters or prescriptions
• Configured escalation rules for concerning findings
• Documented next steps for patients and families

The Hub does not replace existing systems — it feeds them. AegisOne’s Intelligence Layer formats and routes data into EHRs, telehealth platforms, and payer workflows.

• FHIR/HL7-aligned data structures for clinical records
• Claim-ready outputs for payer review and reimbursement
• Trend and history views across tests and vitals
• Hooks for care management, population health, and employer programs

A family member taps their profile on the Hub, chooses what they are worried about — “flu / COVID,” “sore throat,” “possible UTI,” “glucose,” “I don’t feel well,” etc. — and answers a few simple symptom questions in everyday language.

• Profiles for adults, kids, and other household members
• Friendly, non-technical questions (no medical jargon)
• Automatic suggestion of appropriate tests and vitals combo

The Hub walks the user through exactly what to do: swab, fingerstick, urine strip, or vitals check. Everything is presented in calm, simple steps with visuals.

• Guided swab, sample, or strip use with timing cues
• On-screen countdowns while the cartridge is being read
• Integrated vitals checks where appropriate

Once the cartridge or vitals are read, the Hub builds a structured event: test type, basic interpretation, symptoms, vitals, and metadata. The household sees a plain-language explanation; clinicians see structured data.

• Plain-language summary on the Hub screen (“what this means”)
• Structured data packet prepared for telehealth review
• Flagging of any red flags that warrant escalation

For integrated deployments, the event is handed to clinicians and systems that can take action: telehealth visits, in-person follow-ups, work/school notes, prescriptions, and claims.

• Secure routing to telehealth clinicians or provider teams
• Documentation and notes sent back to the Hub and patient
• Claim-ready record stored for payers and programs

The Hub is envisioned as a stationary countertop device — roughly the size of a coffee maker or smart speaker with a screen — that does not move from room to room.

• ~10-inch touchscreen, tuned for “arms-length” interaction
• Countertop footprint suitable for kitchen or common area
• Always-on Wi-Fi with optional Ethernet for stability
• Designed for permanent presence, not occasional use

Tests are performed using single-use cartridges and strips, with a slot or reader in the front of the Hub. Cartridges are designed to be intuitive, with minimal chance of incorrect insertion.

• Disposable cartridges for respiratory panels, strep, UTI, pregnancy, and more
• Visual and on-screen feedback when a cartridge is inserted correctly
• Future roadmap for expanded test menu as partnerships grow
• Clear messaging around safe disposal after use

The Hub coordinates external peripherals (such as a BP cuff or pulse oximeter) and built-in sensors to capture vitals as part of the diagnostic flow.

• Blood pressure via connected cuff
• Temperature via integrated or paired thermometer
• Oxygen saturation (SpO2) and heart rate via sensor or companion device
• Trend views across multiple readings over time

For households, the Hub is the “what should we do next?” device — tests, vitals, and a clear explanation of what that might mean, all without hunting for apps or urgent care slots.

• One standard way to “test at home” instead of many fragmented kits
• Reduced anxiety through clear, empathetic explanations
• Ability to involve telehealth clinicians quickly if needed

For telehealth clinicians and provider groups, the Hub replaces the vague “I tested at home” with structured, time-stamped, and well-described events.

• Consistent format for at-home tests and vitals
• Reduced ambiguity when making care decisions remotely
• Better documentation for charts and follow-up plans

For payers and program sponsors, the Hub creates a traceable record of home-based testing and telehealth activity that supports reimbursement and value-based care models.

• Claim-ready outputs tied to specific test events
• Insight into utilization patterns and outcomes
• Support for employer, plan, or condition-specific programs

The current focus is on getting the experience right and proving the core concept end-to-end.

• Interactive Hub demo UI (as seen in the Hub Demo experience)
• Foundational backend and data models for test events
• Early “work/school note” concept for demonstration purposes (clearly labeled as demo)
• Acquirer-ready documentation of architecture and flows

Next, the Hub is intended to be piloted with a small number of real households and telehealth or provider partners.

• Limited test menu using available at-home diagnostics
• Basic integration with telehealth workflows and documentation
• Feedback loops with clinicians, families, and payers
• Security, trust, and compliance posture hardened in-line with partners

At scale, the Hub is meant to sit inside a larger platform’s portfolio — device manufacturer, telehealth platform, health system, or payer — and tap into their test menu, regulatory posture, and distribution.

• Expanded test menu powered by acquirer R&D and partnerships
• Deep integration into existing EHR, telehealth, and payer systems
• Global or multi-region distribution under acquirer brand(s)
• Aligned regulatory and quality frameworks (e.g., HIPAA, FDA pathways)
