HealthBeacon partners with MAGIC Foundation to bring their innovative digital therapeutic technology to US patient group for human growth disorders.
(Dublin, Ireland; Chicago, IL, July 9th, 2018) HealthBeacon, a digital therapeutic leader in medication adherence, and the MAGIC Foundation, the world’s leading advocacy and information group for human growth disorders, has announced that their smart sharps platform will be made available to patients that are members of the MAGIC Foundation in the USA.
The MAGIC Foundation is a charitable non-profit organization created to provide support services for the families of children afflicted with a wide variety of chronic and/or critical disorders, syndromes and diseases that affect a child’s growth. HealthBeacon identified the MAGIC Foundation as their chosen partner to promote the MAGIC Foundation mission “to reduce the emotional and physical trauma caused by growth disorders, resulting in healthier, happier children and consequently, adults.”
HealthBeacon will be introduced to patients and carers at the MAGIC Foundation’s 24th Annual Conference in Illinois on July 12th, 2018. HealthBeacon’s injectable adherence platform has been cleared by the FDA, and this cornerstone event is the first step to make the HealthBeacon smart sharps system available to the millions of Americans on long term, chronic injectable care. This major launch event will kick off HealthBeacon’s US Tour to introduce their digital therapeutic platform to influencers and advocates nationwide.
MAGIC Foundation is the global leader in endocrine health, advocacy, education, and support. HealthBeacon believes that engaging with the world leading advocacy groups will provide a strong network and patient engagement program to improve medication adherence for patients with human growth disorders.
“MAGIC Foundation is so pleased to offer our patients such an impactful and innovative solution to help with their treatment programs. We appreciate and always welcome ways to improve the lives and the care of our patients and their families.” Dianne Kremidas, Executive Director at The MAGIC Foundation.
