Description
“Patient engagement is shockingly bad across the system. Doctors just don't have the time or mechanisms to educate their patients,” says former Amazon product manager David Neyhart. It’s something he learned firsthand during a scary health odyssey that included many rushed appointments where there was no chance to ask questions, and at best he’d be handed subpar educational materials. He’s filling this information gap through a company he co-founded called Encap Health which provides physicians with a seamless and customized way to give their patients the information they need to manage and improve their health. “We integrate with their EHR, so based on what the doctor's already entering - billing codes, prescriptions or visit notes -- we extract that and send related content to that patient automatically.” It comes in the form of an email from the doctor’s office with a list of health information and links where they can learn more. A patient with osteoporosis, for example, would get information on options for exercise and nutritional guidance specific to that condition. Importantly, neither party has to learn how to navigate a new app or web portal. Tune in as Neyhart fills in host Michael Carrese on how this process builds trust between patients and providers, and how he is eyeing a future in which Encap provides more personalized, proactive content journeys to guide patients on a path to improved health.Mentioned in this episode: https://encaphealth.com/

A Quarterback for Chronic Conditions - Dhiren Patel, VP of Medical Affairs at Pack Health: Maybe you can't pick-up your prescriptions because you can't afford to fix your car. Or maybe getting outside to exercise is a worry because your neighborhood isn't safe. Dhiren Patel and his colleagues at Pack Health, a digital health coaching company, realize there are many barriers to better health that go beyond what doctors have traditionally addressed, and that insight is built into their efforts to help people manage chronic conditions such as diabetes. As he discusses with host Shiv Gaglani, this work is more important than ever due to the greater threat COVID-19 poses to people with underlying conditions. by Raise the Line
