SimplyWell™ and wired.MD Announce Partnership to Provide Corporate Wellness Solution
SimplyWell strives to help organizations improve the health and productivity of their employees by identifying people at risk for injury or disease and then providing those employees with the tools to make a positive impact on their health and the organization's financial bottom line. SimplyWell and wired.MD formed a partnership to combine the streaMed Solution with the SimplyWell product suite to facilitate the education and compliance of their customer's employees through video-on-demand presentations combined with proprietary learning verification systems.
SimplyWell provides cutting edge educational and health management solutions to small and medium sized corporations throughout the United States. By combining the wired.MD consumer health education videos into their primary application, these employees will now be able to be educated via multilingual, multimedia education that will become a standard. The SimplyWell solution goes one step further by verifying the learning completed by employees, allowing them to incentivize recipients for being more proactive about their health management.
wired.MD is leveraging 40 of its over 300 videos into this new learning verification system created specifically for this partnership. Mark Friess, CEO of wired.MD, states “wired.MD has traditionally developed patient and consumer health education content for hospitals and clinics but these same patients are also employees in corporations across America. Therefore, partnering with SimplyWell and providing our first ever corporate wellness solution was a natural move for wired.MD.”
