Are your patients fluent in the language of their disease?



What are you doing to empower your patients into healthier behaviors? What tools have you giving them to support the journey to wellness?

Traditionally, physicians have used their power of their influence or the strength of their relationship to encourage healthier habits in patients.

Today’s delivery system is changing and evolving rapidly. New models of care that focus on the whole patient while integrating the entire system have greatly improved both the experience and outcome for stakeholders. This progress is incredible, but what more can we do?

CVS released recently a study that found 70% of patients don’t understand written medical instructions. How are you educating your patients on the disease and treatment? How much information is made available? How do you know if your patient read the material, and if they did – how much did they understand?

What if we could engage our patients with more than just data? Consider the value of teaching patients how to manage their chronic condition through fun and interactive games? Could games that teach and monitor their transition prevent re-admissions in high risk patients?

Yes, we can game our way to better health – one population at a time!!
