About meamedica|pro

  • What kind of company is IPS?

    Insight Pharma Services was established by a pharmacist in 2008 with the aim of supporting patients in their use of medication. It gives the information surrounding drugs a new perspective by considering the point of view of the patient. The focus is on what really happens during the use of a certain medication and this is what allows the patient to play a crucial role.

    This focus is the basis for all activities at Insight Pharma Services and is why we concentrate on medical and pharmaceutical knowledge. Because of this way of working, an investment round took place at the beginning of 2010, enabling IPS to further shape its ideas.

  • What is the objective of meamedica|pro?

    meamedica|pro aims to make the connection between the healthcare provider and the patient. The patient remains the owner of his data and he / she easily arranges the accesses provided to healthcare providers. The healthcare provider gains insight into DNA results and medication use and can easily use this data to support and improve the care to be provided.

    In addition to reports, meamedica|pro also provides background information on DNA, on (pharmaco)genetic testing and on the interaction with the mechanism of action or the metabolism of a drug. Where possible, graphical representations are used. Literature references are also available so that the healthcare professional can pursue a deeper understanding at all times.
