AccentHealth is America's largest Healthy Lifestyle TV Network created specifically for patients in medical waiting rooms. The AccentHealth program reaches 154 million viewers annually in 12,000 waiting rooms nationwide.[citation needed]

Since 1995, AccentHealth has been providing health TV programming produced by CNN's award-winning[citation needed] Medical Unit. The monthly program is co-hosted by Dr. Sanjay Gupta, CNN’s Chief Medical Correspondent and Robin Meade, CNN’s Headline News Morning Anchor and features educational health content on topics such as medical breakthroughs, seasonal health, heart health, parenting, nutrition and fitness.

AccentHealth’s program and materials are designed to educate patients, provide entertainment, and reduce perceived patient wait time. Through the support of sponsors[who?], AccentHealth is able to provide this programming to physician’s offices at no-cost.
