Platform

The Online Wellness Portal is the single integrated access point for your wellness offerings.

Ease of Use

Designed to leverage your brand through private labeling, the PureWellness Portal supports single sign on capabilities to seamlessly integrate into your intranet or other employee portals.

Access

Users gain access to world class behavioral change tools, including HRA, Diet & Nutrition, Workshops, Exercise Planning, Team Competitions and Incentive and Reward management.

Flexibility

Our portal is highly customizable and allows organizations to seamlessly manage and change portal content independent of PureWellness.

Health Risk Assessment

PureWellness delivers our NCQA Certified online and/or paper based Health Risk Assessment (HRA) that services both the individual and the employer in understanding their needs, risks and overall health. Our HRA differs from others in that it intelligently and dynamically adapts based on an individual's demographics, responses and other factors.

Reporting

Our reporting tools are real-time, exportable to Microsoft Excel and provide administrators with the ability to run reports whenever they want.

The Science

Developed by clinicians with backgrounds in primary care, our HRA utilizes multiple models of health screening to assess risk for the most common and preventable chronic diseases.

Flexibility

We provide you with the choice of omitting specific sensitive questions. Our HRA is delivered in both an online and paper format and supports multiple languages.

Risk Advisor

The PureWellness Risk Advisor uses over one hundred and twenty rules to analyze and determine an individual's risks. Our solution identifies many risks with special attention given to lifestyle risks that can be controlled and negated through behavioral change programs.

Flexibility

While the PureWellness Risk Advisor uses scientific algorithms to identify individual risks, the behavioral change programs tied to those risks are completely defined and controlled by you.

Wellness Workshops

The ability to deliver behavioral change programs and to monitor compliance and efficacy is critical to any wellness offering. With our wellness workshops, organizations can deliver prescriptive, self-paced and customizable programs to educate and empower individuals to take control of their lifestyle choices.

Prescriptive

Wellness Workshops are delivered to employees based on their needs as identified by their HRA or blood screenings. Once an individual's risks are identified they are matched to workshops designed to manage those risks.

Self-paced

The science is clear; individuals learn and adapt at different speeds and rates. By allowing people to learn and participate at their own speed, PureWellness ensures that individuals get the right intervention at the right time.

Nutrition

PureWellness provides each individual with a diet and nutrition plan based on his or her age, sex, weight and height. In addition to creating customized meal plans, at PureWellness, we dedicate ourselves to educating and empowering users to make better food choices for themselves and their families.

Flexibility

Our food log and meal planning capabilities enable users to easily log their caloric intake or choose from our user-driven meal plans, offering millions of possibilities for each day.

Expertise

Our food log tracks micro nutrients and vitamin intake for each individual user. We also provide appropriate caloric and disease state meal plans, developed by our dieticians.

Exercise

We deliver a comprehensive set of tools for managing, planning and logging exercise and activity. These integrated tools let you measure usage and provide incentive points for participation.

Walking Programs

Walking Programs are a great way to engage employees in your wellness program.

Most employees can immediately participate in a walking program, with little to no alteration to their current lifestyle. Using a digital pedometer to track steps is an easy way to get employees engaged in their own health, and to build morale and camaraderie throughout your organization.

Combined with the Team and Personal Challenge capabilities offered by PureWellness, a walking program is a great way to get people moving and talking about your program.

Team Challenges

An effective and new approach to motivating employees is to deliver wellness campaigns that allow departments and organizational teams to compete in wellness initiatives. Using the PureWellness team-based capabilities it is simple to set up teams, post real-time results and manage a team-based competition automatically.

Challenge: Sales vs. Accounting

Using PureWellness you can launch and manage any type of team-based competition.

PureWellness provides you with the ability to create teams, incorporate your pedometers, track steps taken, post results in real-time, and send motivational messaging to all users. This capability is only available from organizations like PureWellness, which have integrated and comprehensive wellness offerings.

Incentives

Driving individuals to participate in wellness initiatives is critical to organizational success. While launching incentives can be simple, measuring and tracking them is often difficult and time consuming.

PureWellness delivers integrated incentive tracking, enabling organizations to assign customized incentive points to specific behaviors they wish to promote. Rather than limiting your programs to meet the limitations of your systems, design programs that are fun, creative and effective.

Flexibility

Regardless of your preferred incentive requirements, PureWellness provides the incentive management flexibility and reporting to meet your needs. You define the incentives and rewards and PureWellness handles the tracking, compliance and reporting with the program.

Virtual Wellness Manager

Health Systems

Health Systems have a responsibility to deliver wellness initiatives to both their employees and the communities they serve. Unlike other institutions, health systems often have the expertise to develop robust wellness programs but not the automation and dedicated resources to achieve their wellness objectives.

Over the last 10 years PureWellness has been working with hospitals and health systems to develop, manage and automate wellness programs to improve employee wellbeing and patient outcomes. PureWellness has established special partnerships with more than 30 hospital and health system customers using our comprehensive wellness platform and services.

Hospitals and health systems have sophisticated information systems and strict privacy policies. Our experience in integrating seamlessly into the infrastructure of hospitals and health systems is what sets us apart from other wellness offerings. The PureWellness platform is HIPAA compliant, flexible and comprehensive to meet the demanding needs of health care organizations.

Using our award winning platform and NCQA certified solution, hospitals and health systems have a trusted partner to deliver exceptional employee wellness initiatives and community outreach programs. Contact us and learn more about the PureWellness and Wellness Made Easy.
