The Health Television System Inc. (HTS),
producer of highly credible sponsored patient education, is
utilized in top-ranked hospitals across North America. Its
15-year track record includes the 1998 launch of branded direct-to-patient
television network, Healthtv.
In light of recent negative press concerning direct-to-patient
information services, Healthtv
wants to ensure its educational content is distinguished from
commercialized information.
Healthtv
is not commercial-driven and its service is not given to a
hospital as a bonus with a major purchase. Education is its
mandate. Healthtv
has been and remains committed to a content philosophy that
makes a positive contribution to hospital based patient education.
Healthtv's
satisfied client base includes:
- UCLA
- Johns
Hopkins
- NY Presbyterian
- Rush St. Luke's
- Shands
- Beth Israel
Deaconess
- University of
Virginia
Providing the right patient education
to hospitalized patients and their families is Healthtv's
business. Impact Survey Results from pre and post testing with
patients and staff prove the effectiveness of Healthtv's
content philosophy.
Working with key associations and healthcare professionals to
produce quality Education examples from the 2002 schedule are:
Pain Management - endorsed by American Pain Foundation
- the largest consumer advocacy group, and produced in collaboration
with Joint Commission Resources and 12 teaching Hospitals.
Medication Safety - underwritten by NY's Hospital for
Special Surgery through an award From the State Dept. of Health
