Three New MSK Health Programs
As a trusted advisor to small businesses, your clients rely on your guidance to maintain a healthy and productive workforce. Musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions like back pain, arthritis, and muscle strains are increasingly common, leading to significant costs for employers. More than 50% of Americans over 18 suffer from an MSK injury, with nearly 40% of Californians affected. Additionally, 22% of the workforce misses work days due to debilitating MSK pain.
To prevent and treat MSK pain, Blue Shield is expanding its Wellvolution program to include 3 new services:
- SworkIt – A mobility and exercise app with video-guided workouts for stretching, strength, cardio, yoga, barre, and Pilates to help prevent and recover from injury.
- Kaia – An evidence-based digital therapy for various MSK conditions, offering tailored care plans with exercises, mindfulness techniques, educational content, and support from Nationally Certified Health Coaches. It includes Motion Coach™ for real-time exercise feedback.
- Sword Health – A program to predict, prevent, and treat pain with a dedicated physical therapist providing personalized exercise plans and regular support.
By offering programs that address MSK disorders and promote overall wellness, you can help your clients reduce healthcare costs, enhance productivity, and build a healthier workforce. Learn more and contact us today for a Blue Shield quote.
