The eMbrace solution is a significant shift in how employers can address the needs of their employees and how companies can become thriving, high-performing organizations. eMbrace is built to address multiple areas of an individual’s life, proactively assessing if they are thriving, struggling, or suffering across six essential elements: career, social, financial, physical, community, and emotional.

Magellan’s whole-person approach identifies impacts to total wellbeing. By doing so, employers can not only address urgent needs, but also help with the small life stressors that can distract employees, hamper engagement, and result in costly healthcare needs.

In addition, Magellan has joined with Gallup® to create the Magellan-Gallup® Wellbeing Project — an initiative established in 2021 with the goal of helping people move from suffering and struggling in their everyday life to thriving. eMbrace includes a special version of the Gallup® WellbeingFinder™, the Gallup® Wellbeing Survey, that will offer employees a personalized wellbeing plan addressing all six elements. Employees are directed to services and resources that address their pressing needs first, from legal, financial, and identity theft services to digital cognitive behavioral therapy modules, coaching, and counseling.

Once the employee engages in the program, the personal plan adapts to continually offer up services to help them thrive. Progress is measured with reassessments each quarter, which enables Magellan to report improved wellbeing outcomes to their clients.
