The Health Impact AwardFor many months, we have been working to create a new, more personal, interactive way for people to find information about their health, and connect with others who share their concerns and interests. One of the most exciting parts of our journey has been learning about the many incredible, innovative health organizations and caring individuals who, like us, are working tirelessly to help people live healthier, happier lives.
While conducting our research into the leading health organizations around the world, we have been humbled by the work being done and the impact that these groups are having on the lives of people here in America and around the world. In addition to providing care and support for patients, they conduct research into improved treatments and cures, raise awareness for central health issues, educate populations about major health risks, and drive innovation across the healthcare industry, making care and treatment more readily available to whomever needs it most.
Too often, these organizations go unrecognized, unappreciated and frankly, unloved. We decided to “share the love” that millions of people have given us recently by choosing Wellsphere as their source for personal health information. We have decided to officially recognize the leading organizations in their fields of health, and to do our part to help spread the word about their efforts and accomplishments.
I am proud to announce the Health Impact Award, which we will grant to the organizations and individuals making the biggest impact on the lives of patients and in their fields. We will contact the selected organizations and individuals, before we announce them to the public. We very much welcome the input of our community in honoring leading health organizations and individuals. If you know of a group or person who you feel is worthy of such a distinction, please send us an email to HealthImpactAward@wellsphere.com.
Here are some of the criteria that we consider in determine Health Impact Award recipients in their respective fields:
• Providing support for patients (emotional and physical)
• Conducting or supporting basic and applied research
• Improving accessibility and affordability of care
• Raising awareness of significant health issues
• Promoting prevention and proactive care
• Providing and supporting education (patients and caregivers)
• Driving and inspiring innovation
