Blue Goji
Product description
Blue Goji is a wellness technology startup company that is focused on improving the health of users. Through fitness gamification, Blue Goji utilizes virtual reality and gaming technology to create the tools or a disease management platform. The system includes unique controllers and games that work directly with standard cardio equipment to make developing healthier habits a fun and engaging gaming experience.
Use case
Blue Goji has been authorized for use with No VA Data. Blue Goji equipment can be set up in the clinic, but not connected to any VA systems or network. The solution uploads data to the BlueGoji solution via a private mobile data connection and plan. Data is stored in the Blue Goji SaaS as Patient owned Data and does not belong to the VA unless the patient releases the information to the Health Coach upon request. The data would then be pulled by the coach to be stored locally.
Getting Started
For SaaS products that do not contain VA owned data*, there is now an expedited process that does not require a traditional VA authority to operate (ATO). Criteria include the following:
- User owns a device (even if VA paid for the purchase of the device) such as a CPAP or glucometer that uses a SaaS product to share patient data (non VA data*).
- SaaS product has no direct connections or interfaces to VA systems or network.
- Users consent to share their data (which may include PII and PHI) directly with the SaaS provider.
- SaaS provider must have published terms and conditions for user consent.
- VA providers access data in a view-only mode, or with limited functionality per the user’s consent.
*According to Circular a130, anything that VA creates, collects, processes, maintains, disseminates, or disposes of by or for the federal government is considered federal information (VA data).
If VA employees would like to use or purchase this service, please submit a SaaS inquiry form to confirm your use case and get procurement approval.
VA providers may not enter any VA information into this product; it must adhere to no VA data standards mentioned above.
