Participatory Medicine is where patients & health
professionals actively collaborate and encourage one another as
full partners in healthcare
Why It works
Decades of research prove that Participatory Medicine isn’t just the right thing to do.
It’s the smart thing to do.
Better Outcomes
Patients who help design their care have better outcomes and manage chronic conditions more effectively.
→ A 4-year study showed more engaged diabetes patients had better blood pressure, cholesterol, and fewer hospital visits.
Happier Patients
When trust and respect are built in, people feel heard and valued.
→ In an Australian trust-based care model, patients reported 96% satisfaction, a 52% drop in trauma symptoms, and a 39% drop in depression.
Lower Costs
Shared decision-making cuts unnecessary procedures and hospital stays.
→ Enhanced support for shared decisions reduced hospital admissions by 12.5% and overall medical costs by 5.3%.
Stronger Trust → Better Care → Healthier People
Patients who are satisfied with their healthcare provider are more likely to make these statements about their provider:
Healthcare is Changing. Fast.
Participatory Medicine helps you meet this moment by putting collaboration at the heart of it all.
