emocha is becoming Scene Health
Our story
emocha was created by clinicians and scientists at Johns Hopkins, and first deployed in rural Uganda. Since spinning out of Johns Hopkins in 2014, we’ve tackled dozens of public health challenges head-on. We’ve fought the most pressing health challenges of our time through better medication adherence management: asthma, diabetes, COPD, hypertension, sickle cell disease, tuberculosis, HIV, hepatitis C, solid organ transplant, depression, and substance use disorders. To every challenge, we said yes. Game on. We’re all in.
To do this, we’ve scaled and enhanced the gold standard of medication adherence, Directly Observed Therapy, to revolutionize care. We’ve partnered with hundreds of organizations: health departments, health systems, health plans, research organizations, and employers. Not only did we solve challenges for our customers, we proved out and published findings that our solution helps patients succeed with medication, one dose and one condition at a time.
Now it’s time to reinvent our brand for a new chapter of growth!

Reinventing our brand

Our new name conveys our commitment to seeing the individual at the scene of their health.
After dozens of interviews and hundreds of hours of ideation and tinkering, we honed in on the story we needed to tell:
- We care for the whole person.
- Every video check-in is a window into each patient’s world, where they are seen and heard.
With this unique approach, we’re transforming the meaning of care. We’re using video Directly Observed Therapy to enable caregivers to finally see the full picture. We’re ALL IN on better health outcomes, and you’ll see that attitude come through in our brand.
Our holistic model of care:
Panorama
People
Our pharmacists, nurses, and health coaches help participants tackle adherence barriers to enable and motivate lasting change for healthy outcomes.

Science
Our validated interventions including enhanced Directly Observed Therapy, Comprehensive Medication Reviews, small financial incentives, motivational interviewing, and more empower people to overcome medication challenges, build new habits, and learn how to self manage.

Technology
Our adherence platform includes a mobile app, a care team portal, content studio, escalation and engagement engine, and more — each designed to help patients achieve better health outcomes.

Our new identity is not just look and feel, but the unveiling of our technologies and services as key elements of a novel model of care, one that took us nearly a decade to develop. Scene is our company, and Panorama is our holistic model of care that combines people, science, and technology. It’s more than just video Directly Observed Therapy. It’s a 360-degree approach to health that tackles challenges and motivates lasting change.
