A Better Alternative to ContextMedia and Outcome Health for Waiting Rooms

Settling on the right solution for your TV can be a difficult task in and of itself. This article will outline a better alternative for your waiting room that isn’t cable, a looping display, or a paid subscription that patients might find boring. As it stands, many medical offices are looking to revisit their medical TV systems. With the recent rise in news about ethics issues from ContextMedia / Outcome Health, office managers and practice owners across the country are looking for safer solutions.

The TV In Your Waiting Room

Before delving into better alternatives for the TV in your waiting room, it’s helpful to examine why it’s there in the first place. Why do medical offices invest in a TV at all? The answer is simple: TVs distract from the wait.

TVs are a familiar element and provide a unique distraction that helps visitors take their minds off their appointments and helps make time pass for anyone else who might be waiting. Having a TV is a no-brainer. What goes on it, is what counts.

Why, then, do some medical offices put content on the TV that is upsettinguninteresting, or ethically questionable.  A good clinic puts its patients first. And when TVs aren’t a top priority, it’s easy to forget the role they play in patient experience. For a closer look at some of the common mistakes business owners make with their TVs, take a look at this article about the Top 3 mistakes offices make with their TVs.  It’s all to make your waiting room a better experience.

A Better Alternative With Patients & Your Business In Mind

A TV subscription that costs less than cable, is entertaining, informative, and consists of non-looping content – which not only gets people exicted about your brand, but educates them on additional services you provide in a way that gets them to come back. It might sound impossible for one service to promise all of that. But it’s not impossible- It’s It’s Relevant TV.

It’s Relevant TV is television made with businesses in mind. It replaces TV systems that are boring, or better suited for the home setting, with a service that better fits waiting rooms, medical offices, or anyplace where there’s a TV that people are watching. Compared to other waiting room TV software, IRTV is a better alternative. Below are some of It’s Relevant’s features, and why it’s a better alternative to what’s out there.

What Makes It’s Relevant TV Shine?

The Content: It’s Relevant’s library of content consists of over half a million videos split into 40+ categories. All content is safe, family-friendly, and free from graphic imagery or unsettling videos. The videos on It’s Relevant are short, which compliments the short attention span of visitors and better fits the brief time people spend waiting. The content is interesting, fun, and guaranteed to improve patient experience when compared to cable, or displays that only show medical content.

The Messaging: It’s Relevant provides free ad space on the side for you to get your messaging across. This space is reserved for any ads, promotions, or reminders of services you offer for visitors to take advantage of. Educating them, and giving them reasons to come back more, and spend more.

The Control: It’s Relevant gives you control over what’s on your TV. Content. Categories. Custom videos and messaging. It’s all part of the package. Users spend less than 20 minutes a month managing It’s Relevant. It’s quick to learn, and easy to use.

The Cost: The service costs less than what most others pay for cable, is more interesting than dry looping displays, and is completely void of Pharmaceutical Ads that plague medical systems.

How Do I Cancel Outcome Health?

You’re not alone. After the recent rise in ethical issues surrounding Outcome Health, many of its clients are jumping ship. If you’re looking for better alternatives to replace Outcome Health with, the best course of action is to review your cancellation policy and see what you’re allowed to do. In the case of Outcome Health, they supply the TV – so in all likelihood that prohibits you from putting another service on a TV they provided. But there’s nothing stopping you from buying an inexpensive TV, and running a better service on that instead.
