Healthily and Pen CS have partnered to create GoShare Plus – a ‘next generation’ SMS reminder tool that makes it easy for Practice staff to send credible and engaging health information to lists of patients.
GoShare Plus provides an easy to access and efficient way for GP Practices to implement quality improvement measures, increase participation rates for health initiatives and improve the delivery of health education resources.
GoShare Plus is the result of an integration of Healthily’s patient education platform GoShare, with Pen CS’s CAT4. It enables Practice staff to identify lists of patients based on selected criteria and deliver targeted health promotions using engaging, evidence-based resources including patient stories (videos), animations and fact sheets sent.
Practices and PHN’s can also access reporting (de-identified data) via GoShare providing an opportunity to evaluate engagement and the impact of their health promotion activities.
Example use cases:
- Cancer screening participation: Patients who are about to turn 50 years could be sent information about the National Bowel Cancer Screening Program (patient story, animation on how to use the kit and fact sheet) with the goal of increasing participation.
- Shingles immunisation uptake: Increase uptake of Shingles immunisation amongst the eligible population (people aged between 70-79 years).
- Home Medication Review invitation: Send information on the process and benefits of HMR to eligible patients to encourage them to present for an assessment.
Here is a brief video explaining how GoShare works:
