Patient Education 2024: An Initial Look at Vendors Who Create & Deliver Patient Education Content
04 September 24
Patient education solutions are an increasing focus for healthcare organizations looking to deliver more patient-centric care, as these solutions provide patients with crucial information to help them navigate diagnoses or upcoming procedures. While some organizations produce their own educational content that is then housed in a vendor’s solution (e.g., portal, interactive patient system), <strong>the focus of this report is on patient education vendors who create and deliver content to organizations</strong>. Generally, healthcare organizations are satisfied as they feel their vendors offer reliable, digestible content and reduce the operational burden, though the use of multiple solutions is common to meet all needs. This report—KLAS’ first focused on patient education solutions—(1) examines customer satisfaction with patient education vendors and their provided content and (2) shares insights into the patient education market.

In an increasingly digital world, the healthcare industry continues to face increased costs and labor shortages. Patient engagement technology is top of mind for healthcare organizations as they work to improve the overall patient experience, increase volumes, cut costs, and create more provider efficiencies. In collaboration with Bain & Company , KLAS recently identified patient engagement as a top-three priority for healthcare investment. For this report, KLAS engaged with executives from 93 unique healthcare organizations to better understand perceptions of the patient engagement market, including strategies for addressing challenges and goals today, which vendors are most aligned with provider goals, and future plans for investment to improve patient engagement.

13 July 23    |   Adam Cherrington and Dan Czech
Amid the pressures of today’s economic environment, healthcare organizations are investing heavily in patient engagement technology to help reduce costs, alleviate staffing challenges, and consolidate technology in other areas. Both provider and payer organizations seek to understand what patient engagement capabilities vendors offer that can meet their core needs. This study (along with additional deep-dive content that will be published on KLAS’ website) is an update to KLAS’ 2021 report and shows which vendors report the broadest capability sets, which vendors have made the most progress over the last two years, and how the industry as a whole has matured. For reader ease, links to relevant online content are provided where applicable. Note that the data in this study is based primarily on vendor-reported information, accompanied by a limited amount of KLAS performance data.

Patient Perspectives on Patient Engagement Technology 2022
26 May 22    |   Adam Cherrington and Dan Czech
The pandemic has emphasized the need for healthcare organizations to better accommodate patients’ needs and decrease barriers to effective care. However, patients are frequently absent from discussions around healthcare information technology (HIT). In KLAS’ previous report on the patient perspective , we discovered a lack of alignment between patients’ engagement technology priorities and those of provider organizations and vendors. Since then, KLAS has sought to gain a deeper understanding of what is needed from vendors and providers to drive greater alignment with patients. This report seeks to highlight the patient voice and is one of many KLAS initiatives aimed at more deeply understanding and measuring the patient perspective on HIT.



Reducing Filters

Unlike sizing filters, reducing filters DO NOT recalculate scores based on the evaluations that meet these requirements. They narrow the list of solutions to show the vendors and solutions that can meet a specific need.

This data is based on interviews with a sample of the firms' recent clients. As a result, it is not necessarily comprehensive of all work a firm may do in this segment.

We require a minimum of 2 confirmations of a service performed in the last 3 years for a solution to qualify.
