What is it indicated for?

The HANC™ Network is intended to be used as a clinical tool to provide a method of monitoring a patient's health status at home and a method for transferring the data to a nurse for review. The HANC™ Network is indicated for use for patients that require medical observation and monitoring while at home, who have medication or therapy compliance issues, and who need training reinforcement. The HANC™ Network is not a patient emergency response system. It does not analyze patient information and does not offer medical advice to the patient. It collects, stores, and transmits patient information to the health professional.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
