Unity Medical launches new Wellness Engagement Solution at 2011 HIMSS

Unity Medical, a division of Unity Corporation and an award-winning developer of enterprise-level content engagement and education technology, announced the rollout of a new Wellness Engagement Solution today at the 2011 Annual HIMSS Conference and Exhibition in Orlando, Fla. The Wellness Engagement Solution offers an interactive, video-based Health Risk Assessment (HRA) tool that focuses on increasing participation and improving outcomes. This new solution is expected to officially launch in June 2011.

“Delivering interactive video content during the questionnaire and feedback portions of the HRA, using our new methodologies, has the potential to transform the way health plans engage their members.”

The Wellness Engagement Solution utilizes components of Unity Medical applications, including WonderBar™ and jLog™, and provides a customized client portal, a health risk assessment, an analysis tool for risk identification, a content management system which delivers a personalized daily video journey and a performance-based metrics package. Participants with certain health risks identified through the HRA process will have the option to receive further information and support, when and where they want to receive it, through short-form interactive video.

"Unity Medical is pleased to have the opportunity to offer this new Wellness Engagement Solution," said Michael Boerner, Unity Founder and CEO. "Delivering interactive video content during the questionnaire and feedback portions of the HRA, using our new methodologies, has the potential to transform the way health plans engage their members."

Video-assisted education has been shown to increase knowledge and satisfaction and reduce anxieties. Unity Medical applications include performance metrics, with both testing and compliance modules available to prove knowledge transfer has occurred. Unity Medical works closely with customers to adapt its applications to fit their needs and ensure an interactive and highly individualized use of the technology.

Live demonstrations of the Wellness Engagement Solution are available at Unity Medical booth #1871 during HIMSS11.
