Automated infection screening for SNFs.
VynMed is a patented point-of-care device that reads rapid infection test strips (COVID, flu, RSV, strep) in under a minute — and produces a tamper-evident digital record for every test, every time.
- Detects pre-used and tampered strips
- Signed digital chain of custody
- Works with your existing strips
- No new compliance workflow
Infection screening relies on strips that are easy to cheat.
Nursing homes depend on rapid lateral flow tests for COVID, flu, RSV, and other infections — but the strips can be reused, swapped, or pre-contaminated. Staff are often the only witness, leaving facilities exposed to HAI liability and regulatory risk.
Pre-used strips
A single strip can be reused across multiple patients, producing a clean result that never actually tested anyone.
Unverified chain of custody
Paper logs and phone photos leave gaps that surface during audits, investigations, and litigation.
No fraud detection layer
Standard readers just return positive or negative. They don't flag tampering, reuse, or environmental interference.
A four-step workflow that takes under a minute.
VynMed fits on a countertop, plugs into a standard outlet, and integrates with the disposable test strips your facility already uses.
Insert
Staff inserts the rapid test strip into the supervised reader.
Authenticate
Patented anti-fraud pre-scan detects tampering and pre-used strips in real time.
Read
Computer vision interprets the strip under controlled lighting and timing.
Report
A timestamped, cryptographically signed verification token is stored automatically.
Purpose-built for SNF infection screening.
Detects HAI risk in real time. Reduces testing latency. Produces CMS-compliant audit trails. Designed around the actual workflow of a nurse on the floor — not a clinical lab appliance.
Three layers of verification.
Patented anti-fraud pre-scan
Detects reused and tampered strips before a result is ever recorded. The core VynMed invention, protected by US 12,308,098 B1.
Computer vision reader
Captures the strip under controlled lighting and timing so results don't depend on who is holding the test.
Signed chain of custody
Every test produces a timestamped, cryptographically signed token — stored automatically, exportable for audits.
Protected by a granted US patent.
VynMed's anti-fraud pre-scan mechanism is protected by United States Patent 12,308,098 B1. The patent covers the combination of hardware-enforced strip authentication and computer-vision result reading that makes VynMed impossible to duplicate with off-the-shelf camera apps.
It's a legally protected moat: the core fraud-detection layer is not a feature competitors can replicate.
