Our approach

  • In person or remotely

    Our coaching sessions are designed to suit daily life. That’s why we offer your patients coaching from your practice, a partner practice or remotely. This results in fewer external referrals on your part and improved patient retention.

  • Integrated, interprofessional treatment

    We care for your patients in line with your guidance and keep you up to date regarding coaching sessions. On-site integration means we have short lines of communication and simple processes.

  • Evidence-based coaching

    Our coaching and advice are founded upon current research. That’s why we work closely with leading medical experts. Our studies and publications include our latest findings.

 

We work in an evidence-based way

We believe that Oviva works best when we research our area and analyse data. This is how we continuously improve our app-based care and tailor it to the needs of our users.

We work closely with our expert advisory board to do this. You can access studies and publications with a simple click.
