For health systems

The detail your procurement review needs.

If you’re evaluating Aera for a pulmonary-rehab program, this page brings together the program-structure, outcome-measurement, and security information your due diligence will require.

Evidence & methodology

A program informed by established rehab practice.

Aera’s structure draws on recognized pulmonary-rehabilitation principles. We describe what the program is modeled on — we do not claim clinical outcomes.

Guideline-informed structure

The multi-week routine is informed by GOLD reporting on COPD management and AACVPR-informed pulmonary-rehabilitation program structure — adapted for guided, at-home delivery.

A defined rehab curriculum

Guided breathing techniques, progressive paced activity, and patient education organized as a structured multi-week program, not ad-hoc monitoring.

Standard outcome instruments

Patient-reported and functional measures use recognized instruments — the mMRC breathlessness scale, the PHQ-9 and GAD-7 mood and anxiety screeners, and the 1-minute sit-to-stand test — so results can be compared with those of other pulmonary rehabilitation programs.

Built for measurement

Structured, longitudinal data capture is designed to support program evaluation and research-grade analysis over time.

Aera is an educational and supportive pulmonary-rehabilitation program. It is not a medical device and does not diagnose, treat, or make clinical decisions. References to guidelines describe the principles the program is modeled on, not claims of clinical benefit.

Security & privacy

Designed for institutional diligence.

Our privacy page is written for patients. This is the organization-level summary that security and compliance reviewers typically request.

Encryption

Health information is encrypted in transit and at rest.

Role-based access control

Least-privilege access by role; clinicians see only the patients on their care team.

Audit logging

Access to patient records is logged to support audit and accountability.

U.S. data residency

The U.S. program runs on U.S. infrastructure, isolated from other regions, and data does not move between regions.

Consent versioning

Consents are captured and versioned, so what a patient agreed to — and when — is on record.

Research uses de-identified data only

If data ever supports research or program evaluation, it does so only in de-identified form under a data-use agreement — identifiers are never included.

Where we stand on HIPAA

Aera is built to a HIPAA-aligned roadmap. We use that phrase, rather than “HIPAA certified,” because it accurately describes where the platform is today, and we would rather you hear that from us than discover a gap later. We are glad to walk your compliance team through our current posture and the path ahead, including business associate arrangements where they apply.

Early-stage and clinically grounded.

Aera is an early-stage program working with pulmonary-rehabilitation clinicians to bring a structured, guideline-informed routine into the home. We would rather earn your program’s trust through clinical rigor and a transparent security posture than through a wall of customer logos. If you are evaluating Aera, we will answer your due-diligence questions directly.
