Digital Patient Education Advantages to the Physician and Patient

Saves physician time and effectively facilitates educating the patient. Allows the physician to simply document that the patient received the standard education for a given topic, assuring consistency in the information provided to each patient.

Improves compliance with medication plan and provides the patient with both a visual and spoken presentation. Better understanding of the disease process and need for medication should improve patient compliance.

Provides physicians with a portable presentation. Aids in clear communication with non English speaking patients. Physicians can talk through the presentation using their handheld, or have an assistant start the automated presentation in the patient's native language on a computer, DVD, or VCR.

A patient "take home" CD/DVD is also available.
