Edison, N.J.-based Hackensack Meridian Health launched the "Life Years Ahead Radio" station on Pandora Sept. 20. The station constitutes one of the first healthcare branded radio stations available on the internet radio streaming service.
Health system officials said the station represents another way for administrators to deliver the best patient experience possible.
The station will feature music by well-known pop, country and rock music recording artists, including Kelly Clarkson and Ed Sheeran.
"[The partnership is] a great fit. Pandora is a company based on innovation and personalizing the music experience, similar to how we approach our mission with the same sense of discovery and commitment to exceptional, personalized care and enhancing the quality of life in our communities," said Robert C. Garrett, co-CEO of Hackensack Meridian Health.
