Join us for an exclusive member roundtable featuring winners of the eHealthcare Leadership Awards' Best Overall Patient Experience category, sponsored by healthcare digital marketing and digital experience agency Geonetric.

With an increasing number of patients expecting an "Amazon-like" digital experience, Hackensack Meridian Health leaders sought to improve patients' access and management of care using digital tools. HMH’s efforts go beyond having a patient portal — they continuously review and optimize the entire patient journey in person and online.


In another example of digital improvement, UNC Health utilizes leading healthcare technologies to create a connected patient experience that led to a significant increase in mobile app downloads — but that's only one of their current digital initiatives.


Join this interactive discussion as our panelists share best practices, strategies, and initiatives that improve patient experiences and drive business success.


We’ll be discussing:

  • How user-friendly websites are the cornerstone of patient access, engagement, and information. For patients across the full range of digital experiences.
  • The growing role of mobile apps as part of a connected patient experience.
  • How online appointment scheduling empowers patients with seamless, self-service options.
  • Why personalized patient portals are essential for secure access to medical records, test results, and direct communication with providers.
  • Ways telehealth and virtual care expand access through video consultations and remote monitoring.
  • AI-driven chatbots and virtual assistants’ place in enhancing engagement and providing instant responses to common patient inquiries.

Don’t miss this opportunity to be part of the discussion, ask questions, and share insights with top industry experts.
