Liberate Ideas and Alpha MD Establish a Partnership to Launch Liberate Health Patient Education Platform in the UK's NHS
NEW YORK & LONDON, May 1, 2019 (Newswire.com) - Alpha MD, a global leader in research analytics and consulting, and Liberate Ideas Inc., the leading provider of digital patient education for physicians, announce today a partnership agreement in order to initiate integration of Liberate Health in the U.K.’s National Health Service.
Liberate Health is a fast-growing healthcare professional digital patient education platform that has been proven to increase the effectiveness of the education encounter and, more importantly, reduce the time required by the HCP to educate patients.
“The partnership between Alpha MD and Liberate offers us a tremendous opportunity to synchronize the services we offer the NHS in the U.K.,” said Alpha MD CEO Jignesh Barasara. “We currently provide our clients with an array of clinical trial, education and data management solutions to help our institutional clients improve their efficiency -- and Liberate adds great value to that offering.”
Every healthcare institution is looking to enhance the effectiveness of their interactions with patients to improve health outcomes and reduce cost. BMJ, a global healthcare knowledge provider, states, “Educating patients by providing them with accurate and understandable information enables them to take greater control, potentially reducing readmission rates, and unplanned visits to secondary services whilst providing safer care and improving patient satisfaction."1 Liberate uniquely provides content that is built by both medical thought leaders and health literacy experts. Using the Liberate health platform has been shown to reduce the time required to educate, improving both education outcomes and patient satisfaction.
Liberate CEO Richard Nordstrom added, “I am very excited about this business-building partnership with Alpha MD that significantly increases Liberate's global footprint in two important markets, including the U.K. and India. The point-of-care education market is a global imperative. Our clients are striving for deeper patient engagement to improve health outcomes as well as enhanced healthcare professional efficiency and effectiveness. The timing is right for this unique partnership and the broadened services it offers NHS institutions and healthcare professionals in the U.K.”
National Health Service (NHS) is the publicly funded national healthcare system for England and one of the four National Health Services for each constituent country of the United Kingdom, with 150,000 doctors in total and over 320,000 nurses and midwives. It is the largest single-payer healthcare system in the world. https://www.nhs.uk/
