MediaCARE vs Healthwise for Point of Care

Compare Products

Jump to:

MediaCARE offers patient-specific education easily accessed at any time through the in-room television. Selection is obtained from an extensive library of evidence-based, age-appropriate content assigned on admission, by physician orders and diagnoses code. Our educational app is consistent with Joint Commission Standards and meets Meaningful Use objectives for patient education resources. Clinicians have full flexibility to make appropriate changes, adding or deleting videos for the patient to view. If a clinician determines that additional or different content should be delivered, the agility of MediaCARE makes this easy. The system is designed to monitor and track the exact viewing and understanding of the educational content. Once the education has been completed MediaCARE will automatically notate the patient’s medical record.

Differentiators

Differentiators vs EHR Functionality:

None provided

Differentiators vs Competitors:

The Care Team has access to the video content watched by their patients, which enables them to send timely reminders to complete their viewing. The MediaCare Dashboard also offers reporting on aggregated or individual content use.

With a centrally managed content system that includes digital video content, it’s possible to reduce costs by as much as 35-40% in total print volume. That can mean a ~30% reduction or more in toner and ink costs. That adds up, since a large hospital system prints as much as eight million pages per year at a cost of approximately $3.8 million.

Interactive, digital learning helps healthcare providers reduce unnecessary costs, saves staff time and reduces readmissions or sentinel events.

Differentiators vs EHR Functionality:

Location, Location, Location

Let’s face it, we’re on our devices all the time. That’s why, in addition to print options, we deliver patient education across mobile, desktop, and video, wherever and whenever it works best.

Go Beyond the Handout

Provide health education for every encounter and at every touchpoint. Whether you’re looking for easy-to-understand patient instructions, engaging videos, or user-tested decision aids, we’ve got every care moment covered.

Empower and Engage

It’s a fact: patients who are more engaged excel in self-management. Help patients succeed in their health goals with health education that’s easy to understand, offered in multiple languages, and crafted to motivate healthy behaviors.

Differentiators vs Competitors:

Get the most out of your Healthwise solution with expert advice, training, and support. We identify new opportunities, help you understand what’s working and where to improve, and know the importance of working closely with you after the sale and implementation.
