The concept of Patient Engagement strives to keep patients well informed about their health condition, different possible treatments available, and makes patients fully aware of the health outcomes of the choices that they make, for which healthcare organizations provide the necessary support and guidance.

The patient is kept on the same page as the healthcare provider, concerning all the relevant medical information about their condition and the medical care that is provided to them.

An efficient patient engagement program utilizes all the necessary tools to have the patient at all steps along the diagnosis and treatment journey and to include them in decision-making and prioritizing their wishes.
