Balanced information for better care
Academic Detailing for Health Care Decisionmakers
At Alosa Health, we believe that medical decisions should be based on unbiased, evidence-based information. Our mission is to improve patient outcomes by identifying and disseminating the best evidence available, and to support health care decisionmakers in providing optimal care, free of any commercial influence. We accomplish this by assembling the best evidence on a given topic and disseminating it through several means, including print-based materials and academic detailing – interactive educational outreach to decisionmakers in their own offices, to deliver the best evidence on optimal patient care.
