Options App maximizes doctor/patient counseling in primary care settings. Check it out!
How do we reduce the cost of health care? I was recently working with one of our resident physicians who knows about the importance of improving how physicians conduct s*xual risk assessments
Check out our recent blog update!
"The Options App gives me the information I need in a hurry. I know from the summary report what areas my patients really need counseling and what information and advice they need from me." Dr. Lisa Turner, Pediatrician at UC Health
The Options Model of Sexual Risk Assessment is easily implemented into primary care settings. “I think the Options App will actually allow us to communicate better with our patients. When we want to provide guidance and education on s*xual health, we rely entirely on the patient’s desire to discuss the topic openly and honestly. With most young adults, that just doesn’t happen. The Options App gives these young adults the ability to confidentially provide the information we need in order to take good care of them.” Dr. Amy Jochims, North Colorado Family Medicine, Banner Health
