Pack Health and Quest Diagnostics (NYSE: DGX), our parent company, are proud to introduce a new joint employer offering that combines two proven tools in employee wellness, biometric screening and digital health coaching, into one. The joint offering is powered by Quest Diagnostics’ long history as a leader in the employer population health space and the award-winning digital health coaching services from Pack Health, who was acquired by Quest Diagnostics in February 2022.
Biometric screening provides valuable insights into employee health, such as blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels. This information can help employees identify potential health risks and take steps to improve their health. Digital health coaching provides employees the support they need to make healthy changes. Coaches can help employees set goals, develop action plans, and stay motivated.
When biometric screening and digital health coaching are combined, they can be a powerful force for improving employee health. In fact, studies1-3 have shown that employees who participate in biometric screening and digital health coaching are more likely to:
- Make healthy lifestyle changes
- Reduce their risk of chronic diseases
- Improve their overall health
This can lead to significant savings for employers, as well as improved employee productivity and morale. The integration of the two services can further empower employees to take that next step and turn their newfound insights into action.
