Can Telehealth Accelerate the Uptake of Digital Therapeutics?
Introducing an industry-first, integrated direct-to-patient telehealth solution for digital therapeutics that includes patient engagement, telehealth consultation, prescription issuing and dispensing, and patient support. Fueled by the pandemic, telehealth has moved from an interest to expectation for most patients, with 76% of patients reporting they are comfortable using telehealth. Digital medicine solutions, including digital therapeutics (DTx), have also advanced considerably over the past few years as the value of remote management and non-pharmacological treatment of diseases and chronic conditions has become increasingly apparent to patients, providers, and payers. EVERSANA®, in partnership with UpScript Health, has developed the industry’s first and only patient-led virtual care model leveraging full-scale commercial solutions to accelerate […]
Missed Connection or Meant to Be?
EVERSANA is raising the questions the industry is thinking but is too afraid to ask aloud: Has omnichannel lived up to its promise of the “right message at the right time” to drive meaningful results that wouldn’t otherwise be realized by traditional sales and marketing strategies? Are those “seamless brand experiences” integrating the right mix of digital tools and one-on-one personal engagements accelerating patients’ time to therapy and delivering business impact? Are more prescriptions being written and fulfilled to validate the time, money and resources allocated? Unfortunately, the conclusion is no. The promise of omnichannel activation has fallen short for many pharma manufacturers due to stifling obstacles, coupled with high […]

Nearly 32% of Americans suffer from complex, chronic or rare conditions, such as autoimmune diseases, genetic disorders or cancer, many of which require a specialty prescription therapy. Despite being only 3% of overall prescriptions, specialty medications represent nearly 50% of the overall prescription drug spend in the U.S. While we have moved to the on-demand economy in most sectors, many steps in the SpecialtyRx journey still require paper, faxes and phone calls. Once receiving a diagnosis and prescription for a complex therapy, many patients are often left to manage their own care, and both doctors and patients are frustrated by the lack of consistent and transparent communication at every stage […]
Disrupting Healthcare from the Inside: How Incumbents Can Lead Change
The following opinion piece was written by Scott Snyder, Chief Digital Officer, for [email protected] Outsider attempts to reinvent healthcare have done little to move the needle despite billions invested in promising concepts like Microsoft’s HealthVault, IBM’s Watson Health, Theranos, Google’s Contact Lens, Drugstore.com, and more recently Helix and Haven. These were backed by some of the most powerful companies and investors in the world, yet they fell significantly short of driving lasting change, and in some cases, as with Theranos and Watson Health, may have set the industry back in breaking through to innovative models for delivering healthcare. So, what happened? Maybe they failed to recognize that the healthcare industry […]
