Is this really news?
How do I know, I meet s great guy a decade ago creating “FallCall” which was supposed to be a Apple watch accelerometer based fall warning (and prediction) and it worked great and patients liked it
Medicare unfortunately wouldn’t pay for that, and so unless it’s covered, no paid health service can survive
The issue with accelerometers is that they don't prevent fall, only notify afterwards, and you get a ton of false positives. To the degree that Apple devices are becoming a real issue for health personnel.
