CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Emmi Solutions, LLC, the leader in outcomes-driven patient engagement, is collaborating with Texas Health Resources, one of the largest faith-based, nonprofit health care delivery systems in the United States, to implement interactive, multi-modal programs that engage and empower patients to take a more active role in their health. Texas Health will be deploying these programs throughout its 14 wholly owned hospitals and to its affiliated physicians who have admitting privileges to those hospitals.
“Texas Health Resources is extremely innovative and understands that patient engagement is a critical element to patient safety and quality,” said Devin Gross, CEO of Emmi Solutions. “We‘re excited to work with Texas Health Resources and provide them with additional tools to help engage and empower their patients.”
Emmi’s interactive programs use language that patients understand to help them make sense of a complex medical condition, walk them through an upcoming procedure or prepare them for a hospital stay. They can be viewed on computers or mobile devices and combine an easily-understandable and empathetic voice along with image, text and interactivity. The programs can stand alone or be fully integrated into health information systems, electronic health records and patient portals. The patented technology tracks the delivery and consumption of information, which enables Texas Health to measure the impact of patient engagement down to the individual patient level.
