Though there’s a big push for transparency in healthcare, most consumers remain in the dark about their own health information.
Recent research from HealthMine, a clinical engagement platform vendor, finds significant confusion among consumers, with 53% reporting that it’s not easy to understand their health information or what they need to do to maintain or improve their health. By contrast, 74% of consumers surveyed by HealthMine want easy access to health data, saying it would improve their knowledge of their health and improve communication with their physicians.
