Through cloud-based infrastructure, the smart bottle tracks if a pill was removed. When a pill is not removed from the bottle, then the app sends a push notification to the patient to remind them to take their medication.
There is currently one setting that can be personalized by the user, which is the ability to set the time of day that the pill needs to be dispensed prior to triggering a push notification.
Several of MedX’s competitors are in the process of developing similar smart pill bottles. This has raised concerns in MedX's C-Suite on how to remain competitive in this space.
