MediSolutions Expands its Offering with MediVRx and New Executive Leadership
HASBROUCK HEIGHTS, N.J. (PRWEB) December 13, 2017 -- MediSolutions is leading change at the point of care yet again, with the launch of MediVRx. MediVRx will use cutting-edge technology to enhance the way physicians and patients interact. Effective immediately, Neil Keene will serve as the company’s President and Brian Peet will serve as Executive Vice President of Commercial Innovation. These appointments are key to furthering the MediSolutions' mission to bring MediVRx to the forefront of patient education, care and adherence.
MediVRx, slated to launch in March of 2018, is a virtual reality educational system designed to take advantage of real time data to improve education at the point of care. The broad library of topics is growing daily and addresses many critical healthcare needs in the market, such as diabetes education, a deeper comprehension of cancer, and cardiovascular disease. Early market research has shown 87% of physicians will use this in their practice, with many proclaiming that MediVRx will help their patients better understand diagnoses and potential outcomes.
“We want to partner with the pharmaceutical community to deliver value to physicians and patients with break through point of care options rooted in technology,” said Neil Keene, President. “With over 80% retention rates seen in our research, we believe virtual reality will be a key differentiator in patient treatment and overall disease management.”
Physicians are poised to recognize a lift in adherence as MediVRx fulfills a critical unmet need of knowledge retention. Patients will draw direct a parallel between a medication's purpose and the way it works within the human body.
“Every MediVRx patient experience immerses the subject in an educational environment where they can learn by interacting with their medications and condition in a way never before seen,” explained Brian Peet, Executive Vice President of Commercial Innovation. “Imagine a patient diagnosed with cancer, seeing firsthand how their body functions from the inside out; learning the way in which cancer is infiltrating their internal system and organs; and then how a proposed medication can directly influence and correct the prognosis. This positive self-imagining, combined with deeper intellectual capacity will extend care and potentially improve outcomes for the people and patients we care so deeply for.”
These changes mark a critical point in the company's direction of innovation as MediSolutions expands its offerings. Since the commencement of their flagship product, MediScripts™ in 1981, MediSolutions works with over 150,000 physicians nationwide and predicts vast growth through this new ground-breaking virtual reality tool.
"This is an exciting new phase for MediSolutions where we are building on past success and entering into a rising marketplace for both the patient and the physician," said Joshua Lapsker, Founder and Chairman. "Keene and Peet bring progressive experience and a proven track record of leadership in pharma and biotech digital innovation, which makes them ideal candidates for leading MediSolutions into the next phase of evolution.
