Health Hero Makes Company Health Fun

photo health-hero-makes-company-health-fun.jpgThere are abundant corporate health and wellness programs for companies to choose from, but it can be difficult to engage employees when these programs are either too complicated or too simple, and many employees cannot even describe their company’s wellness program.  The idea behind Health Hero is to use the power of social media to connect people through an online community and use that power to help create long-term healthy habits they can sustain long-term.  It is an innovative concept designed specifically for businesses and the benefits and insurance industry.  Health Hero makes company health and wellness fun, social and competitive, even rewarding employees for participating.

At its core, Health Hero uses technology solutions that allow the remote monitoring and management of patient health data, but it does it in a more engaging and incentivizing way than similar products.  The premise for the program is quite clear-cut.  It allows companies to set up a secure social network online that allows employees to establish fitness goals and post their results daily using any social media channel of their choosing.  These channels can include email, text, directly on the website, or even by linking mobile fitness apps, digital pedometers, or similar tech devices.  Users can post to their social media or to a private company social network just for coworkers to see.  The app features tech support so that users can access it via any desktop, laptop, or mobile device.

Health Hero provides a social experience as well as serving as an online fitness network encouraging competition among friends and co-workers, and it is uncomplicated.  Employees create a Health Hero profile, upload their photo, share their interests, and ask others to support them.  Those who meet their monthly workout goals can earn gift cards for retail stores or donate the gift cards to charity.  Users receive email reminders to work out daily and earn points for exercising, posting their results, commenting on other users’ posts, joining online teams, “liking” posts, and “friending” other users.  The company can even assign team captains if they wish, making it all the more engaging.  For more fun, users can play a sort of “fantasy wellness game,” getting points to earn badges and move to the next level.  All that companies need to remember is how important it is to have fast, effective computer repair in order for their employees to remain actively engaged with the app at all times.

Companies can utilize Health Hero as a value-added benefit to encourage greater participation in an existing wellness program or fitness center or as a stand-alone program.  The goal is to help employees stay fit, lose weight, become healthier, be more productive, and live longer, while helping companies lower their health care costs.  Health Hero offers an opportunity to have something fun, exciting and effective that could make a difference for both employees and employers with long-lasting results.
