• Set up alerts for conditions such as device abandonment or elevated resting heart rate
• Guide individual health improvements through bio-feedback and event-triggered messaging
Collecting and Analyzing Biometric Data Depending on the wearable device, the COVALENCE Health Analytics Platform securely captures over 50 biometric elements through IoT gateways or smartphones, resulting in over 72,000 data points per day. It includes patent-pending highly predictive math to analyze millions of data points and display them on an easily accessible dashboard.
Advanced algorithms combine multiple biometric daily values to deliver the COVALENCE Wellbeing Score based on a 1 to 100 scale. Rating consistency of healthy behaviors higher than intermittent bursts of participation, this unidimensional score summarizes sleep, cardio- vascular, and activity habits.
Putting the Data to Use As an example of what can be learned about a specifi c participant pop- ulation, one BCA customer discovered the following in regard to activity:
• Participants aged 35-44 were the most active • Participants 45 and above were the least active • Underweight and normal body-mass-index (BMI) people were the most active
• Obese participants were the least active • Male participants were more active than women
For the same group, sleep metrics revealed obese participants aged 30 and above had the lowest sleep duration, and women proved better sleepers than men. These results helped the customer identify which participant groups needed incentives for increasing their activity and which groups needed the most attention for sleep improvements.
BCA’s solution delivers three key elements for encouraging individual change: regular communication, behavior prompting, and incentive sup- port. Participants receive incentivizing communications and behavior prompts through their smartphones. Incentives can be similar to the discounts auto insurance companies offer to safe drivers based on data from in-car monitoring devices. Healthcare insurers can offer incentives such as lower rates and co-payments. Care providers can work with retailers to offer discounted services and merchandise, such as gym memberships, exercise equipment, and coupons for healthy food prod- ucts. Employers can offer greater coverage of health insurance costs or more vacation days to participants who meet certain goals.
Employing these elements to encourage behavioral change delivers measurable results. One international BCA client accustomed to an average claim value of $36,000 USD and average claim duration of two years achieved an estimated three percent in claim reductions for a total of $15,738,000 USD in annual savings.
