International SOS assigns teams of qualified health professionals to proactively contact patients to provide information, advice and encouragement throughout the course of their treatment.
Our staff coach patients to better understand their conditions, appreciate the benefits of medication and even adopt beneficial lifestyle changes. As patients become increasingly involved with their treatment, improved compliance and persistence rates are observed which enhance the health outcomes for patients.
The World Health Organisation acknowledges that, “Increasing the effectiveness of adherence interventions may have a far greater impact on the health of the population than any improvement in specific medical treatments”1.
International SOS can work with you to design customized solutions to increase the effectiveness of your adherence interventions resulting in improved health outcomes and product performance.
