What are Patient Support Pathways?

Patient Support Pathways are structured, patient-centric programs designed to guide individuals through their healthcare journey, from diagnosis to treatment and beyond. PEP Health’s PSP feature allows healthcare providers to create customised pathways that align with best-practice clinical guidelines while tailoring support to each patient’s unique needs.

Key Benefits of PEP Health’s Patient Support Pathways

Personalised Care at Scale

PEP Health’s Support Programs enable healthcare providers to deliver personalised care to large patient populations efficiently. By leveraging advanced algorithms, the system can stratify patients based on their specific needs and automatically assign them to appropriate care pathways.

Improved Patient Engagement and Adherence

With timely, relevant information and support delivered through the PEP Health platform, patients are more likely to stay engaged in their care plan. This increased engagement often leads to better treatment adherence and improved health outcomes.

Streamlined Communication

The PSP feature facilitates seamless communication between patients, caregivers, and healthcare providers. Automated notifications, educational resources, and progress-tracking tools keep all stakeholders informed and connected throughout the care journey.

Data-Driven Insights

By collecting and analyzing patient-generated data, PEP Health’s PSP provides valuable insights into patient progress, treatment efficacy, and areas for improvement. This data-driven approach allows healthcare providers to refine and optimize care pathways continually.

Step 1: Define Optimal Care Plans

Begin by establishing evidence-based care plans for specific medical pathways, such as prostate cancer or breast cancer treatment.

Step 2: Create Engagement Pathways

Develop patient engagement pathways that align with the optimal care plans, outlining key touchpoints and interventions.

Step 3: Organise Communications

Curate or create communication materials, including messages, documents, and videos, to support various stages of the care plan.

Step 4: Set Communication Rules

Establish rules determining who receives what information and when ensuring timely and relevant communication throughout the patient journey.

Step 5: Match Patients to Pathways

As new patients enter the system, easily match them to the appropriate pathway based on their specific presentation and needs.

Real-World Impact

Healthcare organisations implementing PEP Health’s Patient Support Pathways have reported significant improvements in patient outcomes, satisfaction, and operational efficiency.

For instance, some studies have shown that well-designed patient support programs reduce healthcare utilisation and costs while improving clinical and humanistic outcomes. Real-world data demonstrates that patients participating in such programs sustain higher medication adherence and experience a lower risk of hospital visits over 36 months compared to those not enrolled in a program

Looking Ahead

As healthcare continues to evolve, PEP Health’s Patient Support Programs feature is poised to play an increasingly vital role in delivering high-quality, patient-centred care. By combining cutting-edge technology with evidence-based practices, PEP Health is empowering healthcare providers to create more engaging, effective, and personalised patient experiences.
