Healthy Interactions adds two new programs: Depression and Diabetes & CVD

June 25, 2018

Healthy Interactions Expands Its Chronic Condition Coverage with the Launch of Programs for People Dealing with Depression and Diabetes & CVD.

Healthy Interactions programs have improved the lives of over 35 million people with chronic conditions. Given the high correlation of both CVD and depression with type 2 diabetes, the two new programs further expand Healthy Interactions’ proven population management solution.

“Ever since day one, when we wrote our mission statement: To improve the lives of people with diabetes and other chronic conditions, every decision, investment, acquisition, and effort has been in the service of that single-minded goal. Launching both the Depression and the Diabetes & CVD programs advances us in this journey” stated Paul Lasiuk, CEO of Healthy Interactions.

Since launching its first program for Diabetes Self-Management Education & Support (DSMES) 13 years ago, Healthy Interactions portfolio of programs has grown to include: Insulin Initiation, Mealtime Insulin, Managing Diabetes During Ramadan, Diabetes and CVD, Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP), Type 1 Diabetes, Hypertension, COPD, CHF, Asthma, Parkinson’s, Depression, Weight Management, Nutrition Counseling, Tobacco Cessation, and Falls Prevention.

Fifty-seven independent clinical and behavioral studies and publications have been produced validating the efficacy of Healthy Interactions’ programs. Additionally, client data has been resoundingly strong, including:

NPS of 95 for the DSMES program and an average of 82 for all programs
A1c reduction of -1.71
Diabetes Rx compliance of 77%
Statin compliance of 85%
Program completion rate of 66%
And, significant improvement in key quality metrics

Healthy Interactions’ unique model of integrating high-tech with high-touch is the optimal modality of engaging people with chronic conditions and leads to improved outcomes and lower costs. Healthy Interactions’ patient-centric, high-touch platform (the MyHealthMap™ platform) links with 93 devices (i.e., weigh scales, blood glucose monitors and blood pressure monitors) and connects patients with licensed healthcare professionals for ongoing support.

The high-tech solution is enabled by Healthy Interactions’ nationwide-network of over 10,000 licensed healthcare professional educators. These educators are available in all 50 states for on-site delivery and can be deployed to health systems and employer locations. The majority of this network consists of nurses and dietitians, and 27% of them are Certified Diabetes Educators (CDEs).
