Launched in January 2018, HéMaVie™ is a support program for patients with multiple myeloma, as well as their caregivers. HéMaVie™ aims to contribute to the improvement of the care pathway and the patient experience. Developed by the AF3M* in collaboration with the AFSOS** and the Compagnie des Aidants and with the financial support of the Bristol Myers Squibb Laboratory, HéMaVie™ is implemented by Observia. HéMaVie™ is one of the emblematic projects in which Observia is involved.
