Patient Support Required of Pharmaceutical Companies Beyond the Provision of Pharmaceuticals
In recent years, in addition to providing pharmaceuticals themselves, pharmaceutical companies are required to support continuous patient treatment, improve medication adherence, enhance the patient experience including daily life, coordinate information with medical professionals, and further create new value through data utilization. These concepts are continuously discussed within the industry as 'Beyond the Pill' or 'Around the Pill', and the movement to expand the value provided to patients and medical professionals by combining digital technologies, services, and data is spreading. Amidst this, PHR, which can continuously record and utilize patients' daily data and self-reported data, is highly expected to be the foundation supporting both patient support and data utilization.
In response to this market environment, Omi Japan decided to go a step beyond general PHR development support and newly launch 'Omi-PHR™ for Pharma', which packages functions in accordance with the requirements demanded by pharmaceutical companies.
