Games for Health 2013

For more than 60 years, Kaiser Permanente has provided quality health care to millions of Americans.  This talk focuses on how Kaiser pursues internal research and development for producing innovative solutions for its members.  This includes many forms of interactive health for therapy and behavior change such as apps, Web communities and games.

Organizations interested in adopting games and other novel forms of health interventions as forms of innovation will learn the processes that Kaiser uses to build these efforts AND internal capacity to support further development beyond the prototyping stage.  Developers will learn about how large organizations might work with them to develop new capabilities and projects, and the approaches that might work for them as they seek to collaborate with organizations such as Kaiser.
