Patient Care Online

What Patient Care Online does

Patient Care Online is a healthcare media and education platform that delivers clinical news, expert-authored video, editorial podcasts, continuing medical education (CE/CME) courses, and practical provider resources to primary care physicians and specialists. The platform covers 20+ medical specialties including dermatology, cardiology, endocrinology, neurology, pulmonology, infectious disease, psychiatry, rheumatology, oncology screening, women's health, and pediatrics, organized through specialty-specific content hubs, daily news updates, expert video discussions, peer perspective programs, and conference coverage. CME courses are distributed through a partnership with gotoper.com, which handles accreditation, course administration, and completion tracking, while Patient Care Online provides the editorial front end and audience funnel.

Operationally, the platform runs on a standard digital publishing infrastructure with web-based content delivery, email/newsletter distribution, sponsored video inventory, and specialized toolkits (e.g., Atopic Dermatitis Provider Toolkit, Adult Immunization Provider Toolkit) designed as decision-support resources for clinical practice. The company does not disclose subscriptions or paywalls; content access appears free, with revenue generated primarily through display advertising, sponsored content, and branded resources from pharmaceutical companies, medical device manufacturers, and other healthcare advertisers targeting primary care physicians. The platform is operated as a brand under MJH Life Sciences, a private healthcare communications conglomerate, sharing production infrastructure and editorial oversight with sibling publications in the MJH portfolio.

Headquartered at 259 Prospect Plains Rd, Bldg H, Cranbury, New Jersey, Patient Care Online employs 11-50 staff and operates the website patientcareonline.com. The business model is media-advertising-led, with affiliate/referral economics layered on via the CME partnership. Customer segments are split between the end-user physician audience (primary care physicians as the primary persona, with specialists as a secondary persona) and B2B healthcare industry buyers purchasing advertising and sponsored placements to reach that physician audience.
