Life must keep moving. Innova Medical Group's testing solutions will meet your unique transportation needs.
Problem:
In our interconnected world, transportation remains one of the most vital services both for economic activity and freedom of movement. Responding to the COVID-19 pandemic across the globe, more countries have shut down borders and limited travel. Through testing, monitoring, and implementation, Innova Medical Group pledges to build a sense of security for travelers whether by trains, planes, cruise ships, trucks, or public transportation. Frequent, convenient, and affordable testing can give travelers a sense of security and let them make an informed choice. Most importantly, protecting essential workers, in each of these industries, can minimize risk to public health.
Solution:
In addition to providing test kits, Innova Medical Group partners with customers to build testing protocols that fit unique requirements and provides a Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) compliant digital solution for communicating COVID-19 testing results. Besides healthcare personnel, through Ashfield, an Artificial Intelligence (AI) powered chatbot can answer questions about testing, 24/7.
Mass testing should be available at transportation hubs to identify people who are infectious, asymptomatic, and pre-symptomatic. The INNOVA SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Rapid Qualitative Test can safely reopen rail travel and save thousands of jobs. The pandemic has plunged ridership and created billions of dollars in losses. Estimates show that up to 90 percent of train employees already have been furloughed.
Saving rail transport, both high-speed rail and freight traffic, is essential for smooth global shipping and building a greener future with ecologically-sound train travel.
Both departing and arriving travelers could be screened at a point-of-care, COVID-19 testing center within an airport. With the INNOVA rapid antigen test, passengers can learn, in 15 minutes, if they have tested positive or negative, and get the all-clear to travel. Using the QMC HealthID™ecosystem, test results and personal data are captured and kept secure, with encrypted blockchain technology. This “Health Passport” displays a green, yellow, or red “badge” to indicate the user’s health status.
For international travel, the QR display code on a smart phone acts like a boarding pass or second passport. Besides COVID-19 testing, specially trained healthcare personnel can provide a travel authorization form, which may include a health questionnaire and a destinations’ entry requirements. Enabling travelers to bypass quarantine restrictions, sometimes up to 14 days, will kick-start international air travel. Affordable and convenient testing can save thousands of jobs, keeping airline and airport workers safe by establishing virus-free reliable travel corridors.
Rapid antigen tests for all crew and passengers, on both the day of embarkation and the day of disembarkation, will minimize exposure and prevent community spread.
Once testing results are documented, the Innova QMC HealthID™ Smartphone App tracks and reports test results privately. With encrypted blockchain security, this easy-to-use digital “Health Passport” will let users share information only to those who need to know. Real-time testing results can keep cargo moving and avoid costly blockades out of fear of coronavirus transmission.
Providing individuals with rapid testing results at neighborhood locations solves the burden of taking time off and, if infectious, lets one isolate from family members.
Besides passengers, subway workers have recorded some of the highest number of COVID-19 infections. Knowing their passengers are not superspreaders can make an already stressful job more acceptable during the pandemic.
