Virtual Health Solutions and Docola Partner to Improve Healthcare Communication


“Docola makes it easy for clinics to e-prescribe our content so people can visualize and understand procedures and health conditions. Our multimedia and 3D animations help people comprehend anatomy and physiology in a way that text resources with pictures cannot,” Paul Baker, CEO

Visual Health Solutions, which creates best-in-class multimedia health content, and Docola, a care communication platform that includes a patient education marketplace, announced today they are partnering to make it easy for healthcare providers to e-prescribe Visual Health Solutions’ videos to patients and families.

“Multimedia can educate patients, encourage active engagement in healthcare, and augment informed consent. If patients are engaged, comprehension increases, outcomes improve, and anxiety is reduced,” says Paul Baker, Chief Executive Officer of Visual Health Solutions.

Visual Health Solutions’ 3D, easy-to-understand video content capitalizes on time outside of the doctor’s office to improve patient engagement during visits. Researchers from the University of South Carolina found that 95% of surveyed patients indicated that they were more likely to follow their physician’s directions after watching Visual Health Solutions’ animated videos and engaging with 3D anatomical models.

Ranging from surgery explanations to wellness education and more, Visual Health Solutions’ vast video library is now available on the Docola care communication platform. Docola makes it easy for hospitals, clinics, and healthcare providers to e-prescribe patient education directly to patients and families to ensure they get accurate, timely, appropriate information before, after, and between clinical encounters.

“Docola makes it easy for clinics to e-prescribe our content so people can visualize and understand procedures and health conditions. Our multimedia and 3D animations help people comprehend anatomy and physiology in a way that text resources with pictures cannot,” says Paul Baker, Visual Health Solutions’ Chief Executive Officer.

Eran Kabakov, Chief Executive Officer of Docola, says: “We are thrilled to partner with Visual Health Solutions, a world-class content company, to deliver this content through Docola’s platform, offering Docola’s customers a highly personalized, actionable, and caring experience.”
