Healthwise is focused on one thing—developing consumer health content to
help people make health decisions that are right for them. Our writers,
editors, and reviewers know that if consumer health content doesn't help
a person make a better decision, it doesn't really help.
Information Therapy (Ix®)
Healthwise is leading a new trend in health care—information therapy. With Healthwise Information Therapy, hospitals, health plans, and disease management companies can give consumers the right information at just the right time, to help them make better health decisions. No one knows information therapy better than Healthwise. We literally wrote the book on information therapy and founded the now independent Center for Information Therapy.
