How Nurse-1-1’s Live Chat Widget is Increasing Patient Adherence by 57%

Patient non-adherence is a major problem for digital health platforms. We’re using conversational marketing to introduce a new era of healthcare technology.

Patient non-adherence is a major challenge for the healthcare industry. It’s keeping patients from the best possible health outcomes, robbing online health platforms of their potential and taxing a healthcare system that’s already working hard to integrate innovative new technology.

At Nurse 1-1, we’re committed to helping digital health and online pharma platforms tackle non-adherence. Our new live chat widget is here to help.

Digital health platforms are leading the charge in healthcare’s digital transformation. They’re helping increase access to care and making standard processes more efficient. But as we transition to a more tech-enabled healthcare world, digital health and online pharma platforms need complementary solutions to help replace the personal, in-person touchpoints that are now absent in the patient journey.

That’s where our nurse live chat widget comes in. We’re using a new type of healthcare technology – conversational marketing – to tackle non-adherence, one of the industry’s most expansive problems. 

Digital health platforms are using Nurse-1-1’s new live chat widget to help their patients adhere to treatments and, ultimately, drive better health outcomes. The widget is easy to implement, and allows platforms to add live NP, PA, RN, or MD chat functionality to all patient-facing web pages within minutes. 

Early adoption of our Nurse-1-1 live chat widget has shown a 57% increase in patient adherence after implementation – and this is just the beginning. 

Nurse-1-1 is addressing patient non-adherence

A lack of patient adherence to medication, testing and other treatments is a drain on the healthcare system.

Non-adherence to medications costs the healthcare system $300 billion annually – and that was before the pandemic pushed almost everything online. Out of every 100 prescriptions sent, fewer than 30% are taken properly. Test kits aren’t always returned to labs or used properly, with barely a 50% return rate in some cases.

Patients face many barriers to proper adherence, including poor provider-patient communication, limited patient knowledge about prescriptions, a lack of perceived need for treatment and fear of adverse side effects.

Patients should not be facing so much uncertainty and confusion when it comes to treatments that positively impact their health and well-being. Both medication and testing adherence significantly increase with access to a provider who can answer questions and help alleviate concerns. 

Injecting human interaction and empathy into a patient’s digital health journey will go a long way in addressing non-adherence.
