This implies more marketing money being spent on patient engagement programs to create differentiation in their products and engaging the patients more with their brand.

Besides these, it also provides day to day healthcare services like elderly care, bed sore care, injection administration etc. Most of the services provided by HCAH are cheaper than those provided by a hospital and that too right at the comfort of the patient’s home.
