Webinar Recap
Co-designing Solutions in Partnership with Patients
When a solution is created without consulting patients, patients often use the solution for a short period of time and then stop because it doesn’t add value to their lives or solve their unmet needs.
Healthcare companies can avoid this by leveraging patient-centric co-design in the process of product development using a validated, measurable methodology. Patient-centric design captures the “how” – how patients will use the device and how the device will become a part of their lives both physically and mentally. This approach provides a more holistic view of the right solution that satisfies patient needs. Simply put, with patient-centric co-design, companies prioritize the patients’ perspective, while also considering the environment around the patient.
