Frequently Asked Questions (and Answers!)
What is Pack Health and how is it being provided?
Pack Health is an evidence-based patient engagement platform that provides personalized, one-on-one remote health coaching, support, education, and tools. When members sign up for Pack Health, they are paired with their own personal Health Advisor. A Health Advisor is your personal resource to help you set, track, and achieve your health goals.
What will a Health Advisor do for me?
Have you ever been to the doctor and felt like you didn’t get enough time to discuss all of the things you wanted? Or maybe you felt like you received a laundry list of to-do’s, but not any direction on how to make those things happen? That’s where your Health Advisor comes in!
Health Advisors are non-clinical health professionals – meaning they are not nurses or physicians, but instead, they come from an allied health background such as dietetics, social work, public health, and exercise physiology. On top of their various health specializations, they are specifically trained to listen to your story, needs, and preferences in order to create personalized plans for your specific goals.
How do I work with my Health Advisor?
You’ll work with your Health Advisor from the comfort of your own home (or wherever you are!) on your schedule. Your Health Advisor reaches out to you on a weekly basis via phone calls, text messages, emails, and online lessons. Don’t text? No problem. You can choose which communication methods you’d prefer to use.
