With an emphasis on engagement and personalized support, WellSpark works directly alongside a company’s employees to help them understand and solve the issues – biological, psychological, and social – impacting their health and wellness. WellSpark’s health advisors and trained professionals are equipped with powerful, proven, and proprietary tools based on science that has been NIH-funded, peer-reviewed by the nation’s leading health care experts and validated.
Each employee’s health needs and conditions are as unique as they are, so WellSpark identifies the particular lifestyle and environmental barriers preventing the individual from embracing behaviors that would improve and sustain their health. In turn, these total health improvements can help to mitigate future health care costs, increase employee engagement and satisfaction, and decrease absenteeism.
“WellSpark was created to address employees’ unmet health needs and help employers manage the business issues associated with the health of their workforce,” said Roberta Wachtelhausen, President of WellSpark. “The off-the-shelf wellbeing programs employers have used for years have had limited success, and WellSpark represents a compelling alternative to the fragmented, unengaging, and underutilized benefit offerings traditionally found at most companies. Our comprehensive approach addresses the biological, psychological, and social issues employees face using powerful preventative care tools and talented health advisors to unlock meaningful results.”

WellSpark works with employers to custom design comprehensive total health programs that can be delivered in-person, telephonically, and virtually, depending on the unique culture and structure of each organization. With solutions that are both scalable and modular, employees receive support that is tailored to fit their needs, increasing their likelihood of successfully staying healthy, preventing disease, or self-managing their chronic condition.
Wachtelhausen continued, “COVID-19 has provided a stark reminder of how many are still struggling to prevent and manage chronic disease, and the health ramifications that these conditions have. With the pandemic putting an additional physical and mental strain on the American workforce, supporting and caring for the total health of your employee population is more important than ever. At WellSpark, we understand the modern dynamics of today’s workforce – the physical and emotional stressors that often impede a person’s ability or desire to get or stay on a healthy path – and leverage this fundamental insight to create enduring health improvements.”
