Harvard Health, Outcome Health partner with aim to improve digital care

Harvard Health Publications (HHP) and Outcome Health have joined forces to bring Harvard Medical School (HMS)’s insight to 40,000 waiting and exam rooms through Outcome Health’s digital platform.

HHP will bring their healthcare content review and advisory support to Outcome Health’s video and illustrations to offer health services to patients.

“We are excited about this relationship with Outcome Health, which aligns directly with HHP’s mission of improving the health of the nation,” said Gregory Curfman, MD, editor-in-chief of HHP. “We will now be able to create a greater positive impact by sharing Harvard Medical School’s faculty expertise with a broader audience through an engaging and informative experience at the time it matters most: the moments of care.”

Using Outcome Health’s technology platforms such as the Exam Room Tablet, which gives patients easy-to-access lifestyle management programs, and the Digital Wallboard, providing 3D models to use during consultations, providers and patients are able to access information and review records.

“At Outcome Health, we believe that better health outcomes start during the millions of decisions that are made every day in practices, hospitals and health systems,” said Anil Harjani, VP of strategic partnerships at Context Media. “In collaborating with Harvard to bring clinically-validated expertise to patients, caregivers and physicians in the moments of care, we have the opportunity to drive better health decision making at scale—and will use this relationship to continually find compelling and innovative ways to share their insights through our platform.”
