The football season may be over for the New Orleans Saints, but a partnership with PatientPoint has only just begun.

As the Saints embark on a new year with a renewed focus on health and nutrition, the franchise underscored its work alongside the healthcare solutions company to develop products that increase players’ knowledge of health and nutrition

The partnership, which launched last fall, allows the Saints to use PatientPoint’s exam room screen, which is a large interactive screen, to display various nutrition information that players can easily access. 

The two organizations will also collaborate on a series of projects over the next year.

These include PatientPoint’s inaugural Sports Innovation Summit, which will be held in early March in Las Vegas. 

For PatientPoint, which has primarily operated in areas like doctors’ offices and hospitals, this partnership marks a formal step into the sports health and nutrition space. 

Shawn Nason, PatientPoint’s chief experience and innovation officer, said the Saints were the ideal partner for this brand evolution, calling it a “really awesome experience” so far.

The partnership comes amid a period of change atop the company. 

Last fall, PatientPoint welcomed Sean Slovenski as CEO, who launched the company’s Innovation Network program and brought Nason into the C-suite. Nason said that during Slovenski’s short tenure, he has encouraged the team to introduce bold and innovative ideas to grow the business. 

“We have been working on interesting ways to take our core products to new markets,” he said. 

Still, Saints and transitioning into opportunities in the sports industry, was not something Nason necessarily had on his radar. 

“It happened in the most perfect and unexpected way,” he said.

How the collaboration kicked off, according to Nason, was when Jamie Meeks, the franchise’s director of sports nutrition, reached out to PatientPoint. She was looking for a visually interactive tool that could display nutrition information to players at their training sites. 

Meeks said she first encountered a PatientPoint product that mimicked the design she was on the hunt for, albeit in the most unexpected place. 

“I was telling my team we need something like a big iPad screen that players can tap and explore different nutrition tips,” she said. “It was crazy, because I saw that exact device sitting in my dermatologist’s office.”

Within two weeks of reaching out, both PatientPoint and the Saints became full-time partners. The two sides worked together to tweak PatientPoint’s exam room visual tool and placed it on the training grounds where players could easily access the interface. 

Since implanting the technology, Meeks said she has seen a positive reaction from players and staff. 

“Players have gone up on their own and tapped on the screen to learn about a specific type of nutrition or injury,” she said. “Players can also text or email an article they see to their handheld devices so they can look at it later. It’s great.” 

With the Sports Summit coming up, Meeks will be featured at the event to talk about the intersection of health tech and nutrition.  

Going forward, PatientPoint is looking to activate more of its products in unique ways and work with more sports teams as the year goes on. Notably, it means the company is looking outside the gridiron. 

“We have had some interest from baseball, hockey and collegiate level teams,” Nason said. “We are looking forward to activating our products to assist in areas like mental health for athletes.”
