About Healthwise

About Healthwise, Incorporated

The mission of Healthwise, a nonprofit organization, is to help people make better health decisions. Since 1975 Healthwise has developed Prescription-Strength Information resources that doctors trust and consumers rely on because they are accurate and up to date. In fact, every year people make more than 90 million health decisions using Healthwise information.

One of those resources, the Healthwise® Knowledgebase, contains comprehensive, current, evidence-based, and unbiased information to help consumers make decisions about their health. The Healthwise® Knowledgebase helps consumers to work in partnership with their doctors by offering easy-to-find and easy-to-understand information about conditions, diseases, medical tests, medications, treatment options, and key decision points. Ultimately, the Healthwise® Knowledgebase supports a variety of health care decisions, such as when a problem can be treated at home, when to see a doctor, and what treatment options may be best for an individual. An independent medical advisory board reviews information in the Healthwise® Knowledgebase to ensure medical accuracy and currency.

If you would like to comment on the Healthwise® Knowledgebase, please contact your sponsoring organization or e-mail Healthwise at comments@healthwise.org. If you contact Healthwise about the Healthwise® Knowledgebase, you can expect a response within approximately two weeks.
