Episode 43: More Than Words: The Real Work of Health Literacy

This episode of TriloTalk explores how health literacy goes far beyond simplifying language. It requires consistency, testing, and truly meeting patients where they are. Poor communication can have serious consequences, from medication misuse to reduced trust and engagement in clinical trials. Lisa Chamberlain James, Senior Partner at Trilogy, Elizabeth Brown, Executive Director Clinical Transparency at Merck, and Maureen Kashuba, Senior Director Health Literacy at Merck, discuss this and the importance of partnering together, regardless of what organization you are a part of, to best serve patients across the world.
