Improving outcomes, protecting patient privacy

A foundation of consent

At Phreesia, we believe everyone should be in charge of their health information, and we’ve built our platform of personalized health content on the principles of privacy and consent. Viewing content is optional, and patients can revoke their authorization at any time. Phreesia never sells patient data.

Activated patients.
Better health outcomes
.

We believe that patients who are better informed are more activated in their care. We’re incredibly proud that the relevant, high-quality health information we present to patients—with their consent, and only after they’ve completed their check-in—leads to better health outcomes like increased rates of diagnosis, treatment for chronic disease, preventive screenings and vaccinations, and improvements in symptoms and quality of life.

We partner with life sciences companies, advocacy groups, public health associations, health insurance companies and other organizations to show patients personalized content about treatments or therapies, specific diseases or conditions, or other general health topics. Our goal is to help patients have more informed conversations and make decisions about their care.

Frequently asked questions

Does Phreesia sell patient data?

Phreesia does not sell patient data.

Does Phreesia share patient data with sponsors?

When patients consent to see relevant health information, we want them to know that their data doesn’t leave our platform. The only instance when any information is shared with a sponsor is when a piece of content gives the user the option to request additional information from the sponsor, such as materials about a particular medication or a support program. In that case, the user is shown an explanation of what specific, personal data they would be sharing—such as name and email address—and they are asked to provide an additional consent of their intent to share this limited information. If they do, that limited information—and nothing else—is shared with the sponsor.

Do you use pixels, tags or cookies?

We don’t allow any third-party cookies, tags or trackers to be placed in the content on our platform. When patients view content on the Phreesia platform, it’s private, and it won’t follow them around the internet or be merged with other advertising data.

Do physicians know which content their patients have seen?

Physicians are able to see the content their patients may see in aggregate, but they don’t know which patients have seen which specific content.

What happens if patients do not sign the HIPAA authorization? Does this affect their doctor visit?

If patients don’t sign the HIPAA authorization, it has no impact on their visit. There are no negative repercussions. If a patient declines, their check-in platform session ends.

How do patients revoke their authorization?

Patients can revoke their authorization at any time by emailing privacy@phreesia.com.

Does every patient see content?

Not every patient sees content. If a patient declines the HIPAA authorization, they do not receive any content.
