Better Lives With Care.Wallet: Psoriasis in the USA

Psoriasis is a common, chronic skin disease, with no clear cause or cure. The hardship caused by this condition can be immense. Psoriasis affects people of all ages, and in all countries. According to current studies, more than 8 million Americans have psoriasis, and nearly 60 percent of people with psoriasis consider it a significant problem in their everyday lives.

Psoriasis has an unpredictable course of symptoms and triggers. In so far as treatments are almost invariably long-term, they must also be safe over extended periods of time. As the cause of psoriasis is still unknown, treatment is only available to control symptoms.

Solve.Care’s Care.Wallet provides a range of tools which can help to manage psoriasis. For instance, with Care.Wallet patients will be able to track their symptoms, request guidance to manage discomfort, and receive notification regarding the potential side-effects of prescriptions. For their part, doctors will have the opportunity to schedule appointments, adjust medications, or assign new therapeutic interventions.

The severity of psoriasis symptoms can make it challenging to travel to appointments. Happily, patients can schedule non-emergency medical transportation using their Care.Wallet. If a doctor’s visit is out of the question, clinicians will be able to provide timely recommendations on the same network.

An open channel of communication always helps improve the quality of healthcare. Care.Wallet aims to break down barriers to care and increase access for everyone.
