Empowering Corporate Wellness
Demand for corporate health assessments is growing. At least 40 per cent of UK businesses now have an active wellbeing strategy, underlining the importance of employee health screening.
Health assessments have evolved from providing individual diagnoses to taking on a more holistic role: gathering and providing collective data, which is invaluable for businesses designing strategies to improve workplace wellbeing and revolutionise employee health management. Crucially, the wellness strategy can be based on hard data from the relevant employee bases that is tailored for that set of employees, not on ‘gut feel’ or ‘second guessing’.
Harnessing The Power Of Automation
Taking inspiration from the financial sector, where banking apps have transformed how we access and understand our financial data, the autonomy of health data reflects a similar trend towards convenience, transparency, and self-service. Much like the impact of banking apps on personal finance, accessible health data empowers individuals to gain deeper insights into their distinctive health requirements and risks. This enables them to proactively adopt measures to enhance their lifestyles and mitigate potential threats to their well-being.
Enhancing Accessibility And Engagement
A key challenge with the proliferation of health apps is that our growing awareness of our own health data is mostly achieved through wearable devices. While this has been a game changer in terms of individuals’ understanding of their own health data, for a truly informative ‘deep dive’ we need more than just data collection through a device. Ideally, everyone would spend individual time with a doctor. The doctor would ask questions, take measurements, request and receive blood results from a lab and then interpret the combination of all three data sources. In our resource stretched world, this is simply not possible save for the few who can cover the high cost.
This is changing. Large scale screening programmes are employing user-friendly health screening software capable of making ‘deep dive’ in-depth medical assessments more accessible, encouraging individuals to take control of their health. These software solutions offer dedicated analytics and reporting capabilities, empowering both individuals and healthcare providers with real-time data and rebalancing the relationship between patients and their GPs. Enhanced accessibility means individuals can actively engage with their health anytime, anywhere, fostering a proactive stance towards personal wellness that is less dependent on annual medical screenings.
Saving Time And Resources
Automated health assessments significantly reduce the time and resources invested in routine medical screenings, opening unprecedented opportunities for corporations to offer health assessments to their employee base. In addition to the clear benefits of enhanced accessibility resulting in increased health awareness, it also minimises the need for complex interventions by addressing potential health issues in their early stages.
The benefits are clear - advanced data platforms expand healthcare services to a wider market without an exponential increase in resources or personnel. By integrating diverse data points, these platforms offer a unified health assessment, providing a comprehensive and holistic view of each individual's wellbeing.
