Trusted content is key to telemedicine success
As virtual care continues to grow and mature, hospitals and health systems are expanding connected care experiences for health consumers both on-site and at home. To ensure consumer confidence and provider adoption, Digital Health Architect offers unbiased clinical content that is harmonized for both patients and providers. Wolters Kluwer’s unified telehealth approach optimizes virtual care delivery workflows, supports shared decision-making, and helps improve health outcomes.
“Healthcare consumers need consistent and ubiquitously available health and medical information they can access across multiple interactive care experiences in order to help them make informed decisions about their health and to stay connected with their providers,” said Yaw Fellin, Vice President, Product and Solutions, Clinical Effectiveness, at Wolters Kluwer, Health. “That content must also be trustworthy, aligned with physician guidance, and delivered in ways patients can relate to and understand, which is exactly what Digital Health Architect is designed to do out of the box.”
Maintenance-free clinical content solutions for patients and clinicians
Digital Health Architect eliminates the investment and ongoing costs that hospitals and health systems would need to develop and maintain high quality and rich content that engages health consumers in multiple formats. The medical content is easily consumed and delivered through web services and APIs to support a variety of use cases. Built-in analytics and reporting capabilities make it easy to understand engagement patterns and usage across patient populations, helping to easily quantify ROI.
Support for new virtual care workflows
Digital Health Architect embeds decision-making aids to support a variety of digital health applications. The versatile platform also enables health consumers to directly access medical articles and multimedia resources on diseases, conditions, medications, and healthy living from UpToDate®, Lexicomp® and Emmi®.
