Stethoscope. AI: A Corporate Health & Wellness Platform
Vulnerable health can be an employer's biggest obstacle. According to a recent study, one in every three employees with a long-term health condition has not discussed it with their employers. That hampers an employer’s ability to provide the appropriate health and well-being support to its employees. This crisis impacts every employee’s overall work-life balance. HINNTS Consultancy Services, a Bangalore-based technology startup, provides a digital platform to measure and monitor the health and wellness of employees of an organization.
HINNTS started its operations in Mid-2019 with a mission of bringing your doctor closer to you and developed a chatbot solution to help reduce the gap in time, effort, and travel between patients & their physicians. When COVID-19 hit, the company pivoted with a new mission of returning the workforce to the workplace. It developed a unique digital solution to help organizations monitor the health & wellness of their employees to run operations in the new normal. In July 2020, HINNTS launched a digital solution with the launch customer titan to monitor the risk level of infection to COVID-19 and identify conditions continuously on how everyone is doing & look at the data by location, role & many other filters. In the last two years, the company has enhanced the product to monitor all aspects of health & wellness, including physical, mental, happiness, and social well-being based on guidelines from WHO and MoHFW.
A Smart Tool for Monitoring Employee Health and Wellness
Historically, organizations have pretended that an employee's health problems are unimportant in the workplace. However, COVID-19 has pushed employers to prioritize employees' physical and mental well-being. Absenteeism is a result of minor ailments and a lack of enthusiasm. The WHO estimates that productivity losses due to illness absenteeism cost the global economy USD 1 trillion annually. Gathering all the above arguments, STETHOSCOPE.AI is an aid to the corporate world. Its salient features are health and wellness assessments and recording a full history of health and wellness statuses. By providing a digital health wallet, it personalized the confidential record of all health and wellness data organized in the form of cards based on the type or category of health information, which is quickly accessible anytime and anywhere. Its most distinctive feature is its intelligent dashboard with different health status indicators and access to indepth data, statistics, and historical evaluations of a single employee, a team, or an organization. A component of the platform, the infostructure for digital health, was created to be reusable, allowing third-party systems and applications to offer and access data on the platform. Abov stated features makes it possible for companies to use and manage data that support outcomes and performance.
“We pivoted and changed our primary target customer from hospitals to corporates when we realized that the demand concerning employee health and wellness management was more in the corporate world than the hospitals. And that's when we launched our product in July 2020, with TITAN Company as our pilot customer”, says Roshan Khan, Founder & CEO.
A Holistic Approach Towards Overall Organization Well-being
Many corporate wellness programs mostly focus on physical fitness programs like zumba classes, yoga, step counters, tracking or swimming classes, and more. However, some platforms are providing online YouTube classes for the same thing for physical fitness. Additionally, some programs are now adding and mixing with telemedicine,
where providing online consultation has become very prevalent. This particular feature list is common across all platforms, and the objective is one size fits all. So, without knowing what exactly the employee's real problems are, they provide the same thing for every employee in the organization. Even if the companies are spending a lot of money, the ROI is very low because only around 5 percent of the employee base uses those services effectively. So, the impact is very less. Most companies are not identifying the actual problems employees have, and their needs, and that’s one of the main reasons have specifically added all of the assessments.
Henceforth, HINNTS will have integrations to collect data from various health kits and smart watches to gather health records from there. All these health assessment reports, health checkup reports, blood test results, and genetic test reports will help build robust health and wellness profiles for every organization employee. These assessments are one of the main features that distinguish this product from every other company that offers a corporate wellness program. As of now, nine customers have implemented the application for their employees; msg global in Bangalore is the latest customer. Furthermore, the company plans to achieve HIPAA and GDPR compliance in the coming year to enter the US and European markets.
