AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Rally Health, Inc., today announced its next-generation consumer digital health platform. The new Rally® platform enables users to access and manage in a single, comprehensive experience their employee benefits, well-being programs – including behavior-change programs – and their health care needs such as finding, pricing, scheduling and paying for care.
For employers, the new Rally digital health platform optimizes employee health engagement to help lower costs and improve health outcomes. The platform enables benefit leaders to drive utilization of benefits from multiple health plans through an all-in-one experience that offers personalized decision support for members. With Rally, employers are able to work with a single company to deploy a comprehensive benefits hub that helps employees easily find and access the many resources available to them, and make better-informed and more cost-effective decisions about their health and health care.
“Today we’re taking our Rally platform to a new level by making traditionally disparate elements of the health and health care ecosystem work together seamlessly in a unified consumer experience – even across multiple health plans,” said David Ko, president and COO, Rally Health. “The easier it is for employees to engage in their health and take actions to manage and improve it, the greater the opportunity for employers to maintain a high-performance workforce, reduce health care spending and improve business metrics. It’s a win-win proposition for employees and employers.”
With more than 22 million registered users, Rally is the industry’s leading consumer digital health platform, offered by more than 200,000 employers to help increase employee benefits utilization and lower health costs. In one study, registered members using Rally for two consecutive years saw a 2.2 percent reduction in medical costs year-over-year, saving employers $3,200 per-year per 1,000 members.

Rally for Employers
Employers have long had to address the challenge of managing a complex array of health plans and well-being programs, each in its own silo. The next-generation Rally platform removes the seams between silos to create a simplified, central hub where employers can focus their population health management and engagement efforts.
Rally gives employers a full-circle view of their benefits programs and enables them to easily manage and evaluate their performance. It helps simplify benefits communications by enabling employers to direct all of their employees to a single web or mobile experience. Further, it enables their employees to share a similar benefits experience, no matter which health plan they have, and to access their benefits programs using a single account.
“Our next-generation consumer digital health platform reflects Rally Health’s vision for the future of health and health care. We believe the best outcomes occur when we work together with health plans, physicians and employers to simplify and improve the consumer health experience, ultimately helping people live healthier lives,” Ko added.
