NAT IONAL DIALOGUE FOR<br />
Healthcare Innovation<br />
Care4Today ®<br />
Organization Overview<br />
• Janssen Healthcare Innovation (JHI) is an entrepreneurial<br />
group within Janssen, the Pharmaceuticals<br />
Companies of Johnson & Johnson<br />
• The vision of JHI is to transform healthcare delivery<br />
by connecting, supporting, and empowering patients<br />
and providers<br />
• The JHI team operates as an innovation engine,<br />
developing scalable tools that improve outcomes<br />
Background<br />
Janssen was formed in 2011, shortly after the Affordable<br />
Care Act was signed into law. The group’s focus is to<br />
create cutting-edge, patient-centered health offerings,<br />
such as the Care4Today ® brand and associated tools,<br />
to deliver value-based care.<br />
Digital technologies for chronic disease management<br />
have been a key focus area for the JHI group, because<br />
of the unmet needs of this patient population and the<br />
high costs associated with poor adherence. Approximately<br />
50% of patients with chronic illnesses do not<br />
take their medications as prescribed. In the U.S., medication-related<br />
hospitalizations, including admissions<br />
due to poor medication adherence cost the healthcare<br />
system approximately $300 Billion per year.<br />
Program Details<br />
The Care4Today ® platform enables better connectivity<br />
and pathway transparency between chronic care<br />
patients, their healthcare teams, and their caregivers.<br />
These products also empower patients to take a leading<br />
role in managing their own healthcare.<br />
The Mobile Health Manager platform was launched<br />
in 2012 to help patients improve adherence, increase<br />
engagement, and enhance efficiency of care. Mobile<br />
Health Manager is available to patients as a secure<br />
website and mobile application.<br />
Key features of the platform include:<br />
• Medication adherence reminders, which can be<br />
sent to the patient and/or family members<br />
• Healthcare provider dashboard, which organizes<br />
all patient self-reported data into one location<br />
and provides real-time visibility into these metrics<br />
for providers<br />
• Secure messaging platform to enable direct communication<br />
between patients and providers<br />
Several techniques were used in designing the technology<br />
platform including care pathway mapping, new<br />
product feature assessment, human factor design<br />
testing, and patient and provider usability testing.<br />
