Qik Productions

Healthcare education, made human.

Built for your community.

Whether your team is building a patient education program from the ground up or looking to fill gaps that off-the-shelf content can't cover, Qik creates original 2D animation built around your specific protocols, service lines, and community. Every video stays under three minutes and ships with QR-based analytics so you always know what's landing.

What We Do

Custom animation, built for healthcare

Whether your team is starting from scratch or looking to go deeper on specific procedures, service lines, or campaigns, Qik creates original 2D animation written, designed, and animated specifically for your hospital or health system, built around your clinical language, your brand, and your community.

Procedures, protocols & service lines

Cover what the catalog can't. Built around your exact clinical language, workflows, and brand. Nothing pulled from stock.

Time-sensitive campaigns

Protocol updates, seasonal initiatives (flu, RSV), or new service line launches that need to move fast and feel local.

Across the care continuum

Waiting rooms, exam rooms, bedside, and sent home via QR code with no EHR integration required.

Know what's actually working

Every video ships with its own trackable QR code, so you are never guessing whether content is reaching people. Scans are tracked by location, department, or campaign, giving your team real usage data you can bring back to leadership.

Built Around the Patient Journey

The human moment

Community hospitals serve patients at some of the most vulnerable points in their lives, sitting in an ED after an unexpected diagnosis, trying to absorb discharge instructions after a procedure, or returning for a follow-up on a chronic condition they're still learning to manage. Unlike large academic medical centers, community hospitals often do this without deep specialist teams or dedicated health educators on every floor.

That's exactly where clear, custom video education makes the biggest difference. A short video, delivered right in that moment, in plain language, can help a patient leave with real understanding instead of a folder of paperwork they'll never open.

THE BUSINESS CASE

Health literacy is infrastructure, not charity.

Research from the VA health system found that average healthcare costs per patient increased as health literacy decreased, from $26,879 for patients with adequate literacy to $36,878 for patients with inadequate literacy. That is a nearly $10,000 difference per patient, driven not by diagnosis, but by comprehension.

When health systems address literacy as infrastructure and not as a patient deficiency to be corrected, costs fall and outcomes improve. This is cost-effective care design.

Low health literacy costs nearly $10,000 more per patient. Literacy is infrastructure, not charity.

Why Qik

Four reasons teams choose us

Quick Turnaround

Community hospitals don't have time for 6-month production cycles. Qik delivers in weeks, not months, so you can respond to protocol rollouts, seasonal campaigns, or new service line launches without waiting on a vendor backlog.

Engagement Tracking

Leadership wants data, not assumptions. Every video is paired with a trackable QR code so you can report actual scan and engagement numbers by department or location, giving you proof of reach, not just proof of production.

Full Journey Support

One video format doesn't cover the whole care continuum. Qik content works in the waiting room, at the bedside, and travels home with patients for post-visit reinforcement, meeting people wherever they are in their care journey.

Clinically Reviewed

Every video is reviewed by a practicing clinician before it's delivered. Your compliance and quality teams can trust the accuracy of the content without having to review it themselves.

How It Works

From idea to finished video

A simple, four-step numbered process so you always know what happens next.

Quick Conversation

We talk through what you need, who it is for, and what timeline you are working with.

Script & Storyboard

We write the story and share a storyboard for your review before any animation begins.

Animation & Clinical Review

We build the video, and a practicing clinician reviews it for accuracy.

Delivery & Rollout

You get final files, ready for waiting rooms, exam rooms, or to send home with patients.

PROVEN IMPACT

The research is clear

Published clinical research backs what we see in practice: video education moves the metrics that matter to health system leadership.

$10M+

in excess costs for every 1,000 patients with inadequate health literacy

VA health system research; $10,000 per-patient gap between adequate and inadequate health literacy

42%

of patients called video discharge instructions extremely helpful

vs. 29% for written-only (AEN Journal, 2020)

2x

more likely to correctly recall care instructions

patients who watched video vs. those who received written instructions alone

For community hospitals, these numbers translate directly to HCAHPS scores, readmission risk, and the kind of ROI you can bring to a board meeting. And because there's no EHR integration required, your IT team never has to get involved.

Meet Our Founder & CEO

Mina Yacoub, PharmD, BCPS, is the founder and CEO of Qik Productions. After 14 years as a board-certified pharmacist, including 6 years focused on neonatal and pediatric pharmacy, he developed a deep understanding of how patients receive and retain medical information.

He saw a familiar gap: education stops the moment the visit ends. In this short video, he shares why Qik exists, and how our pharmacist-reviewed videos give patients trusted answers whenever they need them, right from a QR code.
