Top 3 benefits of patient education

Research demonstrates that providing health education has various benefits. 

1. Improves health literacy

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services defines health literacy as “the degree to which individuals have the ability to find, understand, and use information and services to inform health-related decisions and actions for themselves and others.” (7) Providing evidence-based health information to your patients has been shown to improve health literacy among patients. (2)

2. Enhances treatment adherence

Treatment adherence, defined as the extent to which a patient’s behaviors follow an agreed-upon prescription or therapeutic regimen, (1)(4) is essential for achieving optimal health outcomes. According to a 2013 meta-analysis and systematic literature review, patient education increases treatment plan adherence by 16% compared to a more modest increase of 10% among other treatment adherence-improving strategies. (5)

3. Improves quality of care and health outcomes

Education can empower patients to become more engaged in their care and the development of their treatment plans. When patients are more engaged, they’re more likely to experience better health outcomes. (3)(6)
