Unrivaled Technology

We’ve developed a technology and methodology that allows us to emulate a health coaching session, without the coach. This Fusion™ Technology enables our team of health educators, behavioral scientists, clinical psychologists, graphic designers, web developers, content coders, tailoring experts, Oracle DB administrators, and communication specialists to produce the most advanced behavior change interventions, specialty solutions, intelligent participation strategies, and in-depth reporting in the market today.

Scalability

Our revolutionary online delivery is the most cost-effective method to provide high-quality interventions to any population size. Effortlessly apply multiple interventions to effectively manage conditions across the entire care continuum, from healthy to sick, and everything in between.

Unmatched Outcomes

Outcomes don’t just happen, or else everyone would have them. The beauty of our unique Fusion™ Technology is that it produces the only Web interventions that achieve highly efficacious outcomes and proves it by collecting and analyzing every single participant data point.

Scientific Expertise

Each product is developed by a team of experts: physicians, psychologists, nutritionists, smoking cessation experts, epidemiologists, dietitians, exercise physiologists, and behavioral scientists. Integration of evidence-based national guidelines, US Preventive Task Force, and cognitive-behavioral constructs effectively creates positive, lasting behavior change.

What’s in an Intervention?

We begin each web intervention by effectively engaging the participant. Then we assess each individual to understand his or her unique motivation, confidence, needs, and barriers to change.

Next, we deliver a structured action plan that:

• establishes an emotional connection
• follows proven clinical guidelines
• incorporates established behavioral science models
• is uniquely tailored for each individual
• is longitudinal
• offers supporting tools, tips, and resources
• delivers quantifiable outcomes measures
