MediaCityUK-based Social Sense has been chosen by Chorley’s My Health Assistant to support its mission of making health treatments faster and more affordable across the UK.
With rising demand for services such as counselling, physiotherapy, care, nutrition, rehabilitation, health tests and scans, MyHA is providing a vital bridge between the NHS and private healthcare to support those who need to be seen quickly, locally and affordably.
For small providers in particular, MyHA supports lead generation and end-to-end customer appointment and payment management – leading to fewer no shows and positive reviews that can help generate more business.
One of Social Sense’s tasks will be using its sector knowledge to identify and engage individual providers of these services, plus group chain providers who can help fulfil rising demand.
Use of the platform is free to the general public with Health Care provider packages ranging from £20 to £40 per month plus VAT – with reductions for those with more than one location or forming a chain of practices. In areas where demand is high, some companies are being offered free trials for an agreed period of time.
Gary Lovatt, MD of Social Sense Ltd said: “My Health Assistant is a forward thinking, innovative app and programme delivering peace of mind to those needing quick assessments and treatments. All too often being seen quickly is simply not possible. This might be due to long NHS waiting times or prohibitively high costs of going privately for screening, treatments and therapies.”
MyHA was created by Entrepreneurs Kate and Mark Wild, who bring over 30 years combined experience of running a successful global medical business serving the clinical trial market. They came up with the idea based on their own experiences of needing to access a fast treatment service for one of their children, but were unable to achieve this through their GP.
