Tackling health misinformation
Confronted with the overwhelming spread of health misinformation-largely driven by social media-the Faculty of Medicine Osijek (MEFOS) recognized an urgent need to provide clear and accurate medical information to the public.
They wanted to create a reliable, accessible portal that presents verified health information in a clear, understandable way, while also encouraging users to report questionable content for review.
To raise public awareness, they partnered with local media to reach a broader audience with accurate health information.
Building a trusted health portal
The Faculty of Medicine Osijek established the Medicinski potvrđeno platform to help doctors educate the public and provide people with a reliable source of health information in an age of misinformation.
The portal allows users to easily access reviewed articles, project news, updates from leaders and partners, radio segments, and submit articles for verification.
Our team delivered a seamless digital solution that combines trustworthy health content with an intuitive user experience, helping to build Medicinski potvrđeno's reputation as a reliable health resource.
