FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE DATE August 15 2016
HealthChoicesFirst.com is excited to announce the appointment of Dr. Guillermo Rocha to its Medical Board. Dr. Rocha is joining Health Choices First’s experienced Ophthalmologist & Optometrist group, who will be focusing on creating multi-language video material for the patient education platform.
“Health Choices First is rolling out its offering to include video-based CME to attract specialists to the HCF platform, while also expanding its patient education platform,” says Jackson Sayers, CEO, HealthChoicesFirst.com. “Dr. Rocha will be working closely with other ophthalmologists and optometrists towards this large-scale initiative, helping us create and expand this unique educational tool.”
The platform will include emailable Ophthalmology and Optometrist video libraries of content around preparation for surgery, disease management, treatment options and the diversity of treatment methods. HCF will be producing French, Chinese and Hindi videos that contain fresh content for its libraries by using animation techniques, relevant filler and Key Opinion Leaders from across Canada.
“These video libraries are the ideal way to increase patient engagement and participation,” says Sayers. Health care providers can email patients relevant content, which then brings patients back to the HCF site to interact with more content and local solutions.”
