For health insurers
Appropriate care starts with a well-prepared member.
People who understand their condition and the treatment options choose together with their care provider what suits them. Amdia helps your members do that, with validated explanations and more than 100 decision aids, and helps hospitals in your care network welcome well-prepared patients.
How Amdia helps
Two ways to contribute to appropriate care.
-
Decision aids for your members
Make validated explanations and decision aids available to your members. They understand their condition and the options, and more often choose what fits what matters to them. Searching Doctor Google or ChatGPT quickly turns up incomplete or wrong information: that can cause needless worry, or make someone wait too long before seeking help. With reliable explanations, members go to their care provider on time and well prepared.
-
Implementation across your care network
We bring Amdia to hospitals in your care network: intake, explanation and decision aids, and follow-up, connected to their own systems. Together, we contribute to lower total costs of care. After decision aids were introduced in Dutch hospitals, the share of elective operations for gallstones and inguinal hernia fell, with high satisfaction. In the United States, costs for hip and knee osteoarthritis fell by 12 to 21%.
Appropriate care starts with the right conversation.
Privacy and roles
Medical information stays with patient and care provider.
What a patient shares with the smart assistant is read only by the care provider who invited them. The insurer sees no medical data of individual members.
Data is stored encrypted in the Netherlands and processed in the EU. More about safety and privacy

We are happy to show how Amdia works, and to explore together what it can mean for your members and your care network.
