Abstract: Remote health services may be provided, for example, in real time, based on values of health metrics monitored remotely, and in some embodiments, continuously, for a recipient. The system may include a mobile health device configured to continually monitor or intermittently detect values of one or more health metrics. A mobile health device may be locally coupled to a recipient, and may include a health sensor that detects values of one or more health metrics of the recipient. Servers may be remotely coupled to the mobile health device and provide one or more health services based at least in part on health metric values detected by the health device. Providing the services may include determining health communication characteristics, and sending health communications from one or more servers to the mobile health device according to determined health communication characteristics.

Abstract: Remotely providing a health service to a person includes predefining a plurality of analysis types, predefining a rule specifying a condition under which to apply the plurality of analysis types, performing the health service on the person, selecting the analysis type to perform based on the rule and information about the person, performing a type of analysis on the information to determine what interventions to be undertaken based on the information as part of performing the health service, and remotely communicating a determined intervention to the person. Each analysis type represents a type of analysis to be performed on information about the person to determine an intervention as part of providing a health service. The intervention may include altering a health treatment administered to the person as part of the health service. The analysis type may be autonomous based on machine learning and/or based on predefined rules.
