Transforming Digital Patient Engagement
Get to Know Novo Nordisk Founded in 1923 and headquartered in Denmark, Novo Nordisk is a global healthcare company. They have a dedication to drive change to defeat diabetes and other serious chronic diseases such as obesity and rare blood and endocrine disorders. This focus is accomplished via pioneering scientific breakthroughs, expanding access to medicines and working to prevent and ultimately cure disease. In the 95+ years that they’ve been in operation, Novo Nordisk has become the most valuable Danish company by market capitalization. With approximately 43,258 employees in 80 countries, they supply 50 percent of the world’s insulin, and their products are marketed more than 170 countries. Digital Innovation to Meet Growing Patient Demands In order to work effectively with Novo Nordisk, it is important to understand some of their key challenges when engaging with patients online: 1) A more digitally savvy and empowered patient around the disease. 2) Patients adherence to treatment as prescribed by their doctors, to ultimately achieve positive health outcomes, is still a big challenge. Multiple factors affect adherence as diabetes is a complex disease. Novo Nordisk has identified five core factors that affect the patient’s individual experience and behaviour: Biomedical (appropriate treatment e.g. OAD, GLP-1, Insulin, A1C), Psychologic (e.g. motivation, depression, mental resources, Socio-structural), and Cultural (e.g. traditions, celebrations, cuisine). With these factors in mind and after extensive research and feedback from patients and caregivers, as well as Novo Nordisk stakeholders internally (headquarters, regions and affiliates), it was decided to move forward with an innovative project to change the way in which Novo Nordisk engages with patients online. Valtech was selected to drive this strategic project together with Novo Nordisk. The Results The Diabetes What’s Next portal featured over 9,000 visitors the first months after the site went live. While the project and overall relationship is still ongoing, for a solid look at what this work has meant, look no further than this statement from Novo Nordisk’s Online Engagement Manager, Marta Nowotarska: “We are in the process of rolling the portal out globally in over 7 languages, and many more to come throughout 2020, and it’s a huge investment for us organizationally, as we are transforming the way we work – both locally, regionally, but certainly also at the Headquarters level. It’s a long journey, but we have come a long way with outside-in focus, flexible approach and not being afraid to test new ways of working. https://www.valtech.com/en-dk/
