Company mission
To empower every patient to take every dose of medication.
Our take
Scene Health (formerly emocha Health) partners with healthcare providers, departments, health plans, and employers to help patients adhere to medication plans. It does this by leveraging a remote team of nurses and pharmacists to deliver the CDC-recommended DOT model (Directly Observed Therapy). In short, a quick video that allows patient and practitioner to show, and ensure, that medication is taken as prescribed.
One of the biggest problems in modern healthcare is simply non-adherence to medical prescriptions. It’s believed that in the USA alone, only half of medication is taken as prescribed. The end result is more than just waste of resources, but poorer health outcomes – especially when treating serious or chronic diseases like diabetes, tuberculosis or asthma.
Having won the race to become the first MedTech company to bring the DOT model online with any major success, Scene Health has grown rapidly along with the MedTech industry at large. The company began making big moves since its rebrand, securing major funding from an oversubscribed Series B financing round. The company is aiming to further expand its remote team of healthcare professionals to meet demand as it launches new initiatives, such as its new model of care, Panorama.
