Who We Are

We publish the patient education software X-Plain, implement it in healthcare settings, and collect data to evaluate its effectiveness.

X-Plain is the largest library of interactive multimedia software for patient education. X-Plain uses theories of learning to engage and deliver patient-specific information, asks patients questions to verify understanding, and documents comprehension, satisfaction, and compliance.

The Patient Education Institute implements X-Plain in hospitals, physician offices, corporate wellness organizations, and other healthcare settings. We also license X-Plain to health web portals, and integrate it with the software and hardware of our partners.

Please explore our website to learn about X-Plain tutorials, videos and handouts, and find out why more than 1,100,000 patients and health consumers benefit from X-Plain every month.
