When TIME named us one of the top 25 companies in Prevention in their first-ever edition of the World’s Top HealthTech Companies, we couldn’t help but smile.
Not just because it’s a huge honor, but because it confirmed something we’ve believed all along. What the world is starting to call prevention, we’ve long understood as wellbeing.
At Personify Health, we don’t just talk about prevention. We’ve redefined it.
Historically, “prevention” has meant checklists. Think screenings, flu shots, and biometric fairs.
Necessary? Absolutely.
Inspiring? Not so much.
Prevention, to us, means empowering people before problems arise.
It’s about helping employers, brokers, and health plans build cultures of health that are proactive, not reactive.
That means using science-backed behavior change, AI-powered insights, and personalized experiences to help people not just get well but stay well.
To do that, we’ve created the world’s first personalized health platform that brings industry-leading holistic wellbeing, personalized healthcare navigation, and third-party administrator services together. So now, all your efforts to support employee health live in one place. That means one platform. One login. And one contract to manage.
But, bringing everything together only works if the experience actually brings people in. And being ‘in’ only matters if it delivers results.
Most digital health platforms feel like a waiting room. Transactional, forgettable, something you visit only when you have to.
Ours is more like your favorite coffee shop.
The one where they know your name, your usual order, and that you want it, with just a splash of oat milk and two Stevia.
The one that’s easy to pop into and somehow hard to leave.
A space that fits into your life so naturally, it becomes part of your routine.
That’s the kind of experience we’ve designed.
Not something people use out of obligation, but something they return to out of habit. Out of choice.
Because when prevention feels personal and the experience feels rewarding, people don’t just show up.
They come back. Again. And again. Because it works.
Take for example, a prediabetic member who starts with a quick check-in. Just a nudge to log their meals or take a short walk. They’re not doing it alone. Their health coach is right there with them, offering encouragement and personalized guidance, all of which is seamlessly connected through the same app. Over time, those nudges become habits. And those habits lead to real change, like bringing their blood glucose back into a healthy range.
Now consider a member managing weight-related health risks. Their journey might begin with a personalized nutrition tip. But that’s just the start. Through Transform Weight Management, our wraparound GLP-1 support program, they’re guided by a holistic, evidence-based behavior change plan that includes coaching, habit tracking, and lifestyle support. It’s all delivered through the same platform they already use every day. Nothing drastic. Just small, sustainable changes. Months later, they’ve reached a healthier BMI and built the confidence, habits, and support system to sustain their progress long term, potentially even reducing their reliance on medication over time.
These aren’t just anecdotes. They’re examples of what happens when human support, digital tools, and personalized care come together in one connected experience.
And when those moments multiply across our 25 million members and 7,500 employer clients, the results speak for themselves:
- 23% more preventive visits: Routine screenings like cholesterol checks, mammograms, and cervical cancer screenings are happening more often, catching issues earlier and keeping people healthier.
- 14% lower healthcare costs year-over-year: Real savings, driven by proactive care, compared to industry benchmarks.
- 51% average engagement rate: More than half of our members engage with our platform 19 days a month, spend 90 seconds per visit, and complete six meaningful actions each time.
Our members aren’t just interacting with a tool. They’re building healthier habits.
And our clients are reducing their healthcare costs.
That’s the power of prevention.
During our recent webinar on cutting healthcare costs without cutting care, Personify Health’s Executive Chairman Chris Michalak said: “Prevention is fundamentally rooted in engagement and acumen. Do I know what I need to do? And am I engaged around my healthcare?”
That’s why we say, you can’t have ROI without engagement. Because without engagement, prevention can’t happen. And without prevention, costs keep rising and outcomes stay the same.
That’s the connection more employers, consultants, brokers, and health plans are waking up to, acting on, and starting to see real returns from.
When members genuinely engage with their wellbeing, they’re three times more likely to take preventive action and avoid the kind of health setbacks that lead to absenteeism, presenteeism, and turnover.
And they’re not just avoiding illness. They’re avoiding the cost of it, too. Our clients have seen it firsthand in the form of 20% fewer avoidable ER visits and 17% fewer inpatient admissions.
And those are just the short-term wins.
Stick with it, and you’ll see returns that go beyond health alone, like a 25% boost in retention.
This is what Personify Health does.
We bring prevention to life through wellbeing.
We make healthier easier by turning good intentions into daily action. Engagement into ROI. And wellbeing into a competitive advantage.
That’s how you beat the trend.
You don’t have to absorb the projected 9% healthcare cost increase coming in 2026.
You can push back by solving health problems earlier.
Prevention isn’t soft. It’s strategic. It’s measurable.
And it works.
