A ‘Client-First’ Company Always a client-ﬁrst company, Medisafe has ensured to oﬀer patients and its customers the best. A testimony to this is the app’s 4.6 rating, out of 5, on the app stores. Many reviewers have talked about their stories - of how Medisafe has saved their lives, or how it has dramatically improved their quality of life by making medication management much simpler. On the business side, the company oﬀers its pharma partners a way to gain a much better understanding of the behavior of their patients, and a way to engage with them and improve adherence. Addressing the beneﬁts this provides, a prominent client of Medisafe- Leif Moll, Head of General Medicine Strategy & Portfolio Expansion, at the biopharma business of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany, said: “With Medisafe, we would like to help patients with chronic conditions to better organize their medication, therefore improve adherence to their regimen and ultimately achieve the best possible treatment outcomes.” Outshining its Peers Medisafe’s success puts it on a diﬀerent level from competing medication management platform solutions, as with 4.5 million registered users it is by far the leading platform. The ease of use and intuitive interface, the fact that the company has addressed all therapeutic areas, unique features like Medfriend, and the drug interaction checker – all make Medisafe uniquely eﬀective.
