Thought Leadership
With a wide range of user-friendly digital tools that go beyond the pharmacy, you can offer members smart solutions that help them effectively manage their health and get closer to achieving their wellness goals. These patient-centric digital programs also help providers by driving better outcomes and controlling costs.
Balance Rewards for healthy choices®
Balance Rewards for healthy choices, the only retail program of its kind, goes beyond tracking activities to encourage long-lasting behavior changes through health challenges, which can reduce preventable illness and healthcare costs.
For example, patients enrolled in the program tracking blood pressure two or more times a week had 3 percent higher adherence to their antihypertensive medication. Plus, those tracking blood glucose one or more times a week had 5.2 percent higher adherence to their oral antidiabetic medication.1
