Royal Philips Electronics is one of the world's largest electronics companies, with expertise in healthcare, lifestyle and technology. Active in over sixty businesses, and with more than 115,000 registered patents, Philips is a global leader in lighting, personal care, TVs and consumer electronics, as well as in medical diagnostic imaging, patient monitoring systems and healthcare informatics.

Philips Consumer Healthcare Solutions was formed in 2006 to focus on the evolving home healthcare market, where individuals are becoming increasingly active in managing their own health and wellness. Philips Lifeline is the leading provider of medical alert services to enable independent living for older adults. Philips Connected Care offers a range of telehealth solutions for home care and disease management: remote monitoring for patients with chronic conditions and Motiva, an interactive healthcare platform which empowers patient self-care through tools, education and feedback.

Philips Motiva uses the home TV to actively engage patients with personalized daily interactions and healthcare content, motivating them to make lifestyle modifications that can lead to long-term behavior change. Motiva employs evidence-based behavioral health strategies which involve patients in individualized, interactive activities designed to increase their health literacy, self-efficacy and adherence. By combining remote monitoring with easy-to-use tools that promote behavior change, care providers have the potential to increase patient self-management, which in turn can reduce the costs of managing chronic conditions and improve the quality of care.
