Consumers are demanding more from the health and wellness industry
Thanks to advancements in technology and science, the healthcare industry has come a long way in the 21st century, and there are new developments, treatments, and research hitting the market almost every day.
As the medical industry changes and grows, patients have begun treating health and wellness care as more of a product or service, and their expectations for quality of care are higher than ever before.
One of the biggest ways the industry is changing to adapt to the evolving needs of patients is by making personalization more of a focus in not only health testing but health treatments, too.
But what exactly is personalized healthcare, and why does it matter? Personalization is the future of more effective and efficient healthcare, and it is crucial for patients to seek it out in their health and wellness journey.
What is personalized healthcare?
With the shift in demand and overall needs of consumers in healthcare, personalized healthcare simply means treating each patient as an individual with unique needs and circumstances from diagnosis through to treatment.
From the early testing phase to the ongoing treatment phase, a personalized approach keeps the individual at the center and allows health providers to deliver the highest quality care possible, leading to faster and more optimal results.
Consumers have a lot of choices when it comes to taking care of their health, from the medical providers to specific treatments, and they want to feel like they’ve not only participated in their care but contributed to their improved health and wellness, too.
Why does personalization matter?
By being more intentional about testing and understanding how your body functions and what may be causing certain issues, healthcare professionals can create plans and offer treatment options that are specific to your specific situation, alleviating symptoms by addressing the root cause.
Gene and blood testing is a great example of this because it allows us to get a complete snapshot of your current health and identify key opportunities to optimize your system. We at 10X Health also take our testing a step further by providing a customized roadmap to help you reach your health goals and ensure your body is performing at an optimal level.
Personalization in healthcare also matters throughout the patient journey, not just in the initial testing and learning phase. Once issues are identified and goals are set, it’s easy for providers to recommend treatments and not adjust and adapt as your body responds. With the right health and wellness team helping you through treatment, we can constantly be reevaluating your needs and recommend treatment that will match your changing body. Each of our clients is assigned their own Wellness Concierge that will become a constant source of information and support from testing through treatment.
By seeking out a personalized approach to care, you can ensure the whole journey is extremely customized to you, and you can maximize not only the quality of care but ultimately the results you get. After all, what works for your friend or your spouse may not work for you.
