Hi — I’m Megan N. Freeland, PharmD, public health pharmacist and Chief Health Literacy Champion at StockRose.

Nearly 9 out of 10 US adults have trouble understanding or applying health information at some point. 

Even though limited or low health literacy has historically been framed as an individual problem, low health literacy is a systemic, institutional problem that costs the US healthcare system up to $238 BILLION in preventable healthcare expenses each year.

Trying to solve the low health literacy problem by focusing on personal health literacy unfairly places the burden of an institutional problem onto the individual. At StockRose, our critical mission is to strengthen organizational health literacy across the nation’s leading health brands — from direct patient care and value-based care models, to health systems, biopharma, and digital health.

While our website is under construction, I invite you to connect with me on LinkedIn or email us at hello@megannichole.

We can’t wait to learn how we can best support your patients.
