The Most Complete Digital Health Platform & Mobile App

Each year, the economy is losing billions of dollars due to rising numbers of chronic diseases. The Chronic disease Prevention Alliance estimates that 60% of people have at least one chronic disease and that another 80% are at high risk.

Both the economic and patient costs are staggering. These are just a few of the stats that were found in the Chronic Disease Prevention Alliance resource:

• In direct healthcare costs, chronic diseases cost $68 billion.
• This amounts to an estimated $122 billion in lost indirect income and productivity for companies.
• Preventable chronic diseases are costing the healthcare system and us billions of dollars.

Health apps can be used to lower overall healthcare costs for patients and providers.

The IQVIA Institute for Human Data Science performed a study to evaluate the impact of consumer-focused apps on the health system. It concluded that there could be substantial healthcare savings in the future. Based in the U.S., the study found that health apps and wearables could save $7 billion annually for the U.S. healthcare system.

The analysis was focused on diabetes prevention, diabetes treatment, asthma, cardiac rehabilitation and pulmonary rehabilitation. However, it was found that health apps could be used for all diseases to potentially save $46 million annually. That’s significant.

These and other health issues can be managed with the Xcellent Life platform and mobile app. Xcellent Life can help to reduce healthcare costs in the long-term as more people seek preventative care to keep their health.
