Care Collaboration & Patient Engagement

Driving patient engagement and helping to improve the treatment processes to facilitating cooperative care 

There are substantial challenges to be overcome in the field of disjoint information systems and care setting, specifically when looking at how patients experience their own health data and reports. Additionally, healthcare providers increasingly deal with multimorbidity in patients and need to find approaches to better manage chronic diseases.

50 percent of patients evaluated report that information necessary to their care was not available when needed.¹ Meaning, from a patient experience perspective, patients are unsatisfied when their care provider doesn’t have their health data at hand. According to another study, 63 percent of primary care physicians are dissatisfied with the referral process due to lack of information.² Meaning, not providing holistic patient data negatively affects reputation with both patients and referrers.

The global burden (mortality) of chronic disease contribution is estimated of 60 percent by 2020³ and the number of people who are killed globally each year by chronic diseases will rise to 52 million by 2030⁴. Healthcare providers have to increasingly deal with multimorbidity in patients and need to find approaches to better manage chronic diseases. Meaning, that there is big need for more connected care teams and patients.
