Closer to the patient –
What is important to us

Improving patient care

Innovative medicinal products and new medical devices only improve patient care if patients use them correctly. This is why co.patient has developed effective strategies and tools that increase patients' understanding of and adherence to therapy – to improve patient care.

Closer cooperation between industry and patients

Patients and industry are both eager to improve patient care. It is therefore only logical to also cooperate directly with one another in order to achieve these goals. co.patient sees itself as a mediator that brings industry and patients together – to enable beneficial cooperations.

Full transparency

Our clients should be able to fully trust us. We believe in clear communication and complete transparency, from our quote and the first step of the project right up to the feedback after project completion – to ensure that you have a complete understanding of what we do at all times.

Maximum benefit for clients

As a service provider our long-term existence depends on the value of our services for our clients. We work agile, service oriented and in line with your processes – to achieve the best possible results for you as a client.

Compliance

Industry collaborations with HCPs and patients is a challenging venture due to many regulations such as ethical rules, transparency codes or drug acts. We have the required knowledge and necessary awareness to adhere to all the relevant regulations – to ensure that our clients are always on the safe side.

Diversity

We have built a culture where differences in gender, ethnic background, religion and sexual orientation are respected. With diverse teams working together, we increase creativity and innovation – to achieve added value for our clients.

Sustainability

We care about our environment, work paperless and encourage remote work as not having to commute to work reduces gasoline consumption and energy – to minimize our carbon footprint.
