About FwdHealth
Annual US healthcare costs currently total over $2 trillion and are growing with 88% due to cost of care. Wellness is key to addressing these costs and there are many apps and devices like Fitbit and RunKeeper that track this important information. Yet this cost-saving data is not getting to individuals’ healthcare teams (employers, insurers, and care providers like doctors, nurses, and trainers). At FwdHealth, we bridge this communication gap between lifestyle inputs and clinical outcomes to curb rising healthcare costs. Our complete solution includes: 1. A mobile app that aggregates cost-saving lifestyle data from devices and apps and empowers individuals to easily share it with their healthcare team. 2. A web dashboard to view population progress and see who’s on track to meet, exceed, or miss health goals and pass encouragement, recommendations, or rewards to keep individuals engaged and on track.

Share Article FwdHealth, Inc. will launch 12 pilot programs this Friday across five states. Chattanooga, TN (PRWEB)November 27, 2013 FwdHealth is proud to announce that its first launch of pilot programs will occur on Friday, November 29, 2013. The initial list of pilot testers consists of 12 companies spread across five states – California, Kentucky, Missouri, Ohio, and Tennessee – and the nation’s capital. True to its roots as a Chattanooga-based startup, among FwdHealth’s first pilot testers will be local Tennessee companies. “We’re excited to pilot FwdHealth. The functional simplicity and intuitive design within an often-complex space (healthcare) is something that is both impressive and refreshing. As a technology development company, we understand that technology at its core serves to enhance the human experience, not distract from it – FwdHealth manages to do just that,” said Tim Youngblood, Chief Technology Officer and Co-Founder of CodeScience . Another member of the Tennessee health and wellness companies will also be a pilot tester of FwdHealth. “FwdHealth's approachable engagement strategy emulates WellBn's healthy lifestyle formula: simplistic + realistic = synergistic. Together, our vision will set the precedent for the future of holistic wellness and preventative care,” added Brooke Collins, President and Wellness Director of WellBn . In St. Louis, Missouri, some local small businesses have taken an interest in employee wellness. Among them is Bazaarboy , and their CEO, Eric Hamblett, said, “I find that we all need balance in life, and with all our work my team hadn't been spending enough time concerned with maintaining our active lifestyles. I believe that FwdHealth will help my team gain more life balance, increase our energy levels, which all should contribute to increased productivity and continued business growth. " The pilot programs vary in size and duration to gain as much insight as possible. A full-scale product and service rollout is planned for early 2014. FwdHealth is a health company that enables healthcare teams (employers, insurers, and care providers) to optimize the health of the populations they serve through the wellness apps and devices their members use every day via a simple yet engaging mobile application and web dashboard.
