Making sure your patients are engaged – one of two key elements driving patient experience – lays the foundation for stronger patient-provider relationships built on trust, empathy, and understanding. Positive relationships can help improve patient satisfaction and yield patient loyalty. And when a patient has a consistent, trusted source of healthcare, health outcomes can improve as well. Although healthcare is filled with amazing physicians, nurses and staff, the process of coordinating care as a patient is inconvenient and inefficient. Much of the way patients communicate with their doctor’s office - waiting on hold, leaving voicemails, and missed calls - has not changed in decades.

With healthcare’s deep resources, infinite market, and mission-driven employee base, it could be the #1 industry in customer service – and that became Artera's mission. Artera is a SaaS digital health leader in patient communications and the 2021 and 2022 Best in KLAS winner in Patient Outreach.

Artera is creating meaningful conversations that empower patients to ask for support and enable you to deliver better care.

The Patient Engagement Playbook

Strong patient engagement increases adherence to treatment regimen recommendations among patients, which in turn leads to fewer complications and re-hospitalizations. Several U.S. studies recently reported coordinated care trials that actively engaged patients with chronic disease resulted in significant mortality reductions compared to a control group who merely took appropriate medications. The studies suggest chronically ill patients who are engaged in their care live longer than unengaged peers who otherwise receive similar treatment, meaning health and well-being are fostered by engaged and activated patients.

Artera™ recently created “The Patient Engagement Playbook,” which offers six best practices for patient engagement to enable you to foster lasting connections with your patients that will ultimately lead to greater results for both your patients and your organization. The playbook will walk you through six critical steps to increase patient engagement – the sixth and final of which covers creating a continuous healthcare experience for patients.
