Patients + providers helping to fix healthcare from the inside

     Healthcare companies face a number of challenges. Most notably, innovators often have doubts over whether their products or services make sense in the context of day-to-day, “real-world” clinical medicine and research. Does our product or service have a good market fit? Would physicians or patients use it? How would this affect the care of patients? Are there possible new applications we have not thought of? We believe innovators benefit when they have access to direct feedback and guidance from real experts: patients managing their conditions as well as seasoned clinicians and specialists who know the ins and outs of the medical world.

     Medicine X | Spark* is a novel approach to bring together innovators, clinical practitioners, patients, students, and other members of the health care innovation eco-system to solve problems within the academic enterprise. We invite all healthcare stakeholders to engage in active collaborative and strategic discussions on areas ranging from clinical applicability, novel services, to patient-centered care and activation.

     Healthcare companies and organizations can benefit from working with Medicine X | Spark* to engage with patient and providers at the front lines of medicine to work as partners to improve healthcare from the inside. Medicine X includes patients in the design and implementation of all of our initiatives, including Medicine X | Spark*.
