MANHATTAN BEACH, Calif. - BodiMetrics has partnered with Carahsoft, a large holder of government contracts, on a “call-to-action” email to federal agencies, including Veterans Affairs, highlighting research that has shown oximeters that measure blood oxygen may be inaccurate in people of color. Carahsoft also sent the email to Health and Human Services and CMS, as well as to all 50 states and all major municipalities. “It is estimated over 80,000 people will be receiving the call-to-action,” said Neil Friedman, COO of BodiMetrics. “BodiMetrics is extremely grateful for Carahsoft’s efforts.” BodiMetrics makes a ring called CIRCUL that can, among other things, track blood oximetry day and night and, because it uses sensors that take readings from the palm side of the hand, is unaffected by pigmentation, the company says. Carahsoft has also sent a follow-up email, titled “Put a Ring on it,” to highlight the CIRCUL.
