Invite Patients into the Care Model with Connected Health | Perficient, Inc.

With the advent of consumer-driven healthcare, the patient is increasingly being put in the driver seat of their medical care. While the healthcare consumer, on average, only spends one percent of their time in the care setting, it is the other 99 percent that determines whether they return or maintain their health. For this reason, healthcare organizations must become more connected to their consumers and providers of healthcare services.

Connected Health engages patients, members, providers and the health community using technology to deliver quality care outside of the traditional medical setting. Solutions aim to maximize healthcare resources, and provide increased and flexible opportunities for consumers to engage with their care. The ultimate goal is reductions in cost while simultaneously improving the quality of care.
