New content is designed to meet increasing demand for mental health support among increasingly remote and isolated populations.

CRANFORD, New Jersey — March 1, 2022 — Avidon Health, a leading provider of digital coaching solutions proven to break unhealthy habits for diverse populations, today announced the addition of stress management courses as part of Avidon Health’s signature platform, Engagement Rx. The new content is available to health systems and employers to help address stress and other wellness topics. As individuals continue to grapple with pandemic-related issues, Avidon Health has seen an increased demand for resources pertaining to mental health.

“Substance use and burnout among individuals continues to climb and we want to be a resource to help people make healthy changes and improve their lives,” said Clark Lagemann, co-CEO of Avidon Health. “Whether the factors contributing to stress are from work or home—our courses make it easy to make positive changes that improve wellbeing.”

Our new courses incorporate microlearning, which is a type of instructional training that breaks our research-driven content down into bite-sized, self-paced segments to engage participants and promote the adoption of behaviors that improve health and well-being. Participants are empowered to learn at their own pace when it’s convenient to them and achieve long-term mastery of a given subject.

“All of our courses are grounded in more than 20 years of experience and deep expertise in behavior change, and they work phenomenally well,” said Tim Aumueller, co-chief executive officer at Avidon Health. “In an effort to reach more people and change more lives, we’ve designed these additional courses using a new, modern approach. They deliver the same research-driven content as our traditional courses, but with greater flexibility and accessibility, including translation into 14 languages.”

Currently, there are four courses available in this format, including Healthy Weight, Nutrition, and the newly added Stress 101 and Advanced Stress Management. Each course incorporates videos, articles and evaluations to hold participants’ interest to help important concepts stick for the long-term. This increase in engagement is also designed to improve completion and retention rates.

New courses in this new format are being released approximately every three months. To learn more, please visit https://go.avidonhealth.com/microlearning-courses-overview.

The behavior change solution is powered by a thoughtful blend of engagement technology, cognitive behavioral training, and real human support. 

CRANFORD, NJ — April 7, 2021 — Avidon Health, a leading health engagement and behavior change company, today announced the official launch of Engagement Rx™. The innovative behavior change solution uses human-centered and data-driven cognitive training methods to create healthy habits and health outcomes. Engagement Rx intuitively guides behavior change processes for participants and provides robust administrative control and reporting for the organizations delivering care.

“Our goal is to create sustainable outcomes for individuals by delivering a personalized, results-driven experience,” said co-CEO, Tim Aumueller. “Engagement Rx is developed on a solid foundation of science-backed methods which are rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other behavior-change frameworks. By combining user-friendly technology with evidenced-based coaching techniques, we’re helping people lead healthier, happier lives.”

Regardless of a participant’s goals, the platform provides uniquely targeted care paths to create long-term positive results. With Engagement Rx, healthcare organizations and employers can deliver programs to help individuals prevent or end their struggles with unhealthy behaviors that lead to chronic health conditions in a highly scalable, cost-efficient way.

“Ultimately, better engagement is the best way for us to change lives,” said co-CEO Clark Lagemann. “Research has shown that most chronic conditions—and the massive healthcare and other costs they drive—can be prevented by helping people develop and stick to healthier habits. But to do so, we need to focus on fixing the engagement problem in healthcare. Engagement Rx is different because it focuses on the individual, not just the condition.”

While Engagement Rx is one complete solution, it’s comprised of several core components that uniquely contribute to the engagement process:

• Engagement technology thoughtfully deployed to automate communications, track data, and drive accountability;
• Cognitive behavioral training courses and microlearning content to break down harmful beliefs, thoughts, and emotions, and replace them with empowering cognitive responses;
• Care Team resources, including engagement training (in partnership with Johns Hopkins Patient Engagement Program), our proprietary Coach+ CRM, and highly trained staff to support population health initiatives.

Engagement Rx is a turnkey, white-label solution that drives behavior change for diverse populations at scale.​ It can be accessed on any device through a web-based, HIPAA-compliant portal.

The platform was developed by an integrated team of health, technology, and behavior change experts with more than 20 years of coaching, content and technical expertise. Engagement Rx combines the best of digital behavior change courses and real human coaching brought together by MedPro Wellness and SelfHelpWorks, which merged in 2020 to become Avidon Health.
