NEW YORK, Jan. 19, 2020
/PRNewswire/ -- Jumo Health, a global provider of age
appropriate, personalized health care resources, is proud to
announce that it has been selected as a finalist for the Sharecare
Awards, an annual program which honors the creators of
best-in-class productions and programs that promote well-being and
embody the spirit of "sharing care." Established in 2019 in
association with The National Academy of Television Arts &
Sciences, New York Chapter, renowned for the Emmy Awards, the
program aims to inspire and elevate the individuals and
organizations whose creative use of media are empowering people
around the world to live healthier.
For the second consecutive year, Jumo Health has been recognized
for its excellence in health-related programming. This year, Jumo
Health has been selected as a finalist in the Cancer category for
its Understanding
Immuno-Oncology video. Developed in
partnership with Bristol-Myers Squibb, the video helps improve
patient understanding of immuno-oncology treatments by using 3D
CGI-animation to show the mechanism of action.
"We are honored to be recognized with this diverse group of
organizations that has come together to increase health
literacy," said Kevin
Aniskovich, President and CEO of Jumo Health. "Health care
is no longer reserved for the exam room, and the information
provided to empower patients and their care circle to make informed
decisions is now also presented by storytellers with names such as
ESPN, NFL, and CNN. At Jumo Health, we provide resources to help
change health care today. We believe education plays a critical
role in the entire patient journey from diagnosis and clinical
trials to treatment and disease self-management. When more
organizations take a prominent role in the education of patients
and their care circle, such as the ones Sharecare and the Academy
recognize today, we ensure that patients have the best possible
chance to meet their desired outcome," concluded Aniskovich.
