Abacus Health Solutions Joins ASHHRA as Preferred Vendor for HR Initiatives

Abacus Health Solutions Joins ASHHRA as Preferred Vendor

Abacus Health Solutions has recently achieved a notable milestone by being named a preferred vendor by the American Society for Healthcare Human Resources Administration (ASHHRA). This recognition highlights the organization’s commitment to enhancing the well-being of healthcare employees and managing chronic disease more effectively.

The ASHHRA is a professional group affiliated with the American Hospital Association, and its Preferred Partner Program (AP3) connects healthcare human resources leaders with high-quality organizations that offer valued solutions. By becoming part of this network, Abacus Health Solutions is now positioned as a trustworthy resource for healthcare organizations looking to improve employee health outcomes and engagement, while also tackling the burden of rising healthcare costs.

Jeremy Doak, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Abacus Health Solutions, expressed pride in this new partnership. He stated, "This recognition reflects the measurable outcomes we have delivered for large health systems through our diabetes management and GLP-1 weight management solutions. As employers search for effective methods to enhance health outcomes while controlling expenses, we are honored to be acknowledged for our data-driven, evidence-based approach."

Among the innovative programs offered by Abacus Health Solutions are the Good Health Gateway® Diabetes Care Rewards Program and the Healthy Weight Program. These initiatives are crafted to empower individuals to actively participate in their health management through personalized support and evidence-based interventions, which are complemented by incentives. The aim is to improve clinical outcomes and help employers manage healthcare expenditures while fostering lasting behavioral changes.

The Diabetes Care Rewards Program is particularly noteworthy; it leverages patented pharmacy-based incentives boasting participation rates four times higher than competing programs. On average, it reaches a 40% participation rate among eligible populations. This program has demonstrated effectiveness in enhancing medication adherence, increasing preventive care engagement, reducing medical claims, and cutting hospital admissions by over 30%.

On the other hand, the Healthy Weight Program approaches GLP-1 weight management by balancing pharmacy exposure with strategies for long-term success. Participants experience clinically significant weight loss, and impressively, 85% of them maintain their reduced weight for 12 months after stopping the medication. This showcases the sustainable outcomes that can be achieved, extending well past the duration of the prescribed medications.
