Neptune for Healthcare Professionals
Capture the everyday life of your patients
Neptune Care gives you continuous, minute-by-minute symptom and treatment response data from your Parkinson’s patients — so you can personalise their treatment with more precision. Now fully covered by IKK Südwest.
THE CLINICAL GAP
See the pattern – not just snapshots
Your patients’ symptoms fluctuate throughout the day. Medication response varies. Sleep quality, stress, and physical activity all play a role. But a standard appointment only gives you a snapshot – a single moment that may not represent how your patient actually lives.
Neptune bridges that gap. It provides continuous motor symptom and treatment response insights that show you the missing information behind these snapshots: when patients are ON, when they are OFF, when dyskinesia occurs, and how severe. In essence, you can see how each of your patients responds to medication over time.
Neptune is a Class IIa medical device, CE marked and EN ISO 13485 certified.

Frequently asked questions
Q: Are there any costs to my practice?
Q: Do I need to do the billing myself?
Q: How is the data collected, and how can I access it?
Your patient wears a Garmin smartwatch that continuously records movement data. Neptune’s unique AI processes this data to generate motor symptom insights, including ON, OFF, and dyskinesia states. Patients can also log medication, meals, exercise, and non-motor symptoms through the app.
You access all patient data through the Neptune physician portal at your convenience. Insights are presented as a clear and intuitive visualisation, which you can review before or during appointments and compare across customisable time periods.
Q: What if my patient is not insured with IKK Südwest?
Currently, full coverage and physician reimbursement are available through IKK Südwest only. We are in active discussions with additional insurances. Patients not covered by IKK Südwest can sign up to our waitlist to be notified when alternative coverage and payment solutions become available.
