Dallas, TX and Phoenix, AZ, May 15, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wondr Health, the proven leader in metabolic, emotional, and physical health transformation, today announced that it has partnered with Solera Health to enable fast, easy access to its expert, clinical behavior-change program for full-spectrum weight and obesity management. The Solera omni-condition management platform provides tailored solutions to health plan members and employers’ teams across the United States – matching millions of individuals based on acuity and engagement preferences.

As part of Solera’s curated network of proven solutions, the Wondr program helps employers and health plans offer personalized interventions designed to improve clinical outcomes and reduce costs.

“Joining Solera’s elite network of digital solutions enables us to bridge access gaps and transform the lives of even more people,” said Scott Paddock, CEO, Wondr Health. “With 15+ years of experience in the benefits space, we are always exploring ways to make it easy for employers and health plans to offer Wondr Health’s expert behavior-change programs, and the platform’s integration delivers the ultimate in flexibility and convenience.”

The CDC reports that overweight and obesity affect more than 70% of Americans, costing the U.S. health-care system $173 billion annually. The Wondr program goes beyond weight loss to transform whole-person health and treat the root cause of chronic metabolic conditions. Built to scale, Wondr provides employers and health plans a sustainable strategy to manage rising health-care costs and offer their population a highly effective, safe, and personalized experience differentiated by the human touch missing from many digital health and well-being programs in the market. Wondr participants lose approximately 5% of their weight and 50% reverse metabolic syndrome, hypertension, and diabetes risk, resulting in lower claims cost, and 2.1x ROI in the plan year.

“Obesity remains a leading cause of preventable morbidity and mortality, while accounting for significant health-care costs in the U.S.,” said Ed Liebowitz, EVP and Chief Strategy Officer at Solera. “Wondr’s advanced use of technology to coach individuals through weight loss has demonstrated strong results – and we are thrilled that our partnership will allow us to address an even broader population.”
