Incomprehensible medical reports: better understanding your health information

Kevin's story, 29 years old

Honestly, medical reports… I don't understand anything. There are complicated words. I read them but I can't tell if it's serious or not. So I wait for the next appointment for someone to explain. Sometimes a 2-month wait. In the meantime, maybe I'm stressing for nothing. I wish there was a place where everything is explained simply. To help me keep track. Because right now I feel like I'm enduring information rather than understanding it.

How MyTwin can help

This testimony highlights a frequent difficulty in the care journey: understanding medical reports and, more broadly, the health information communicated to patients.

Between technical terms, medical abbreviations and heterogeneous formats (PDFs, letters, raw results), it can be difficult to calmly follow one's medical situation, sometimes generating stress or misunderstanding while waiting for the next appointment.

In this context, MyTwin provides a response centered on accessibility and health literacy.

The platform allows centralizing all medical documents in one place (reports, analyses, imaging, correspondence), then presenting them in a structured, readable environment contextualized over time.

MyTwin can help to:

  • Consolidate all medical reports in a single space
  • Facilitate chronological tracking of results and tests
  • Offer more accessible reading levels for information
  • Help prepare questions for consultations
  • Reduce anxiety related to waiting for medical explanations

The objective is not to replace medical exchange, but to allow patients to better understand their health information, track its evolution and approach their appointments with a strengthened understanding of their journey.
