​​Elsevier Announces Definitive Agreement to Acquire Mytonomy to bring enhanced patient engagement solutions to healthcare providers​

Elsevier today announced it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Mytonomy, a leader in video-based patient engagement solutions that will complement Elsevier’s Clinical Solutions portfolio. Completion of the acquisition is subject to customary regulatory closing conditions.

Mytonomy Cloud for Healthcare is a configurable, enterprise Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform that securely integrates clinically validated patient education videos, enterprise content management, survey tools, and direct-to-patient communications seamlessly within a healthcare system’s electronic health records. The platform automates patient journeys within clinical workflow, driving personalized engagement and extensive real-time analytics delivered within the patient portal and across multiple channels.

The company’s platform drives impressive results. For example, surgery patients in the CMS pathways are watching 20+ minutes per session. Additionally, 73% of patients surveyed attribute the Mytonomy video viewing across the journey (pre- and post-procedure) as helping them adhere to their care plans¹.

According to Elsevier’s latest Clinician of the Future report, many clinicians believe most patients will self-diagnose online in the next two to three years rather than see a clinician, raising concerns about misinformation as AI continues to advance in healthcare. Combining Mytonomy and Elsevier's complementary content and capabilities strengthens Elsevier’s patient engagement capabilities, which deliver standardized written and multimedia education integrated directly into EHR workflows, helping health systems to enhance patient engagement and understanding, improve outcomes, and streamline clinical efficiency.

Omry Bigger, President, Clinical Solutions, Elsevier said: “This acquisition will unlock important synergies across our clinical content, technology and healthcare expertise. By combining Mytonomy’s innovative patient engagement platform with Elsevier’s trusted information and insights, we will create a scalable foundation for future growth that will allow us to deliver smarter, more connected experiences for health systems and the patients they serve. We look forward to welcoming Mytonomy’s talented employees and valued customers to Elsevier."

Anjali Kataria, Founder & CEO of Mytonomy, said: “We are thrilled to join Elsevier. Their deep commitment to improving patient outcomes, delivering solutions with measurable impact and advancing clinical excellence makes them an ideal partner as we enter our next phase of product, and segment expansion.

As we expand our video-based patient engagement solutions and combine Mytonomy’s extensive video and written education with Elsevier’s complementary and comprehensive clinical content library, we are well positioned to redefine how patients access and act on health information at scale.”

Elsevier’s Clinical Solutions business provides a comprehensive suite of evidence-based solutions that support healthcare professionals across disciplines, including physicians, nurses, pharmacists, and specialists. The solutions include PatientPass, ClinicalKey AI, and ClinicalSkills — each designed to deliver fast, trusted clinical insights and decision support at the point of care.
