Equation for Effective Patient Engagement

At ScienceSoft, we have discovered a formula that multiplies three major elements of effective engagement:

PATIENT ENGAGEMENT = TECHNOLOGY * INFORMATION * MOTIVATION

Healthcare organizations deepen the bonds with patients through information and software tools, encouraging them to communicate and take charge of their own well-being.

Technology

Choosing the suitable tech solution, caregivers might consider implementing either one or both the following solutions:

  • Custom Mobile Applications;
  • Custom Patient Portals.

Information

Customized software has the advantage of bringing additional value to patients. The access to personal health data via integrated EHR/EMR systems gives care consumers a reason to engage with providers on a higher level.

Motivation

Packing fresh ideas into a sleek UI, we should also remember about user-friendly features. Adding a few gamification elements, such as achievements, badges, challenges and sharing options, into a custom solution helps to increase the population’s health awareness easily.

Closer to Patients: Mobile Applications

Changing the way health professionals and patients interact is not something rebellious. It is a matter of course, and ScienceSoft’s caregiving customers have already been expanding their services, products and platforms into the mobile environment.

When planning breakthrough patient engagement apps, our clients find it difficult to stick to out-of-the-box products. Mobile standards evolve rapidly, and though ready-made apps could provide a carefully designed UI, and a UX with an optimal set of features, you might end up launching an already outdated product. Moreover, an engaging mobile app has to provide motivational elements, which are not usually included in off-the-shelf sets.

Mobile apps ease up your patients’ daily healthcare routine:

  • Physical wellness and fitness;
  • Special diet and nutrition needs;
  • Appointment manager with schedules and reminders;
  • Online payments;
  • Overview of test results, medications and immunization history;
  • Access to personal and family health record information;
  • Remote consultations;
  • Health education (through gamification elements).

Patient engagement apps ensure synchronization with various health tracking tools including wearable technologies, which makes people more excited about managing their well-being:

Distant Care: Patient Portals

Healthcare organizations are often tempted to choose ready-made software solutions, which might enable a quicker website launch. However, it often leads to such pitfalls as insufficient functionality, poor UI and hidden costs.
