MediKeeper Partners With BioIQ To Add Health Screening Services To Wellness Portal

Healthcare data integration company expands wellness platform with tests for diabetes, heart disease and other chronic conditions

MediKeeper, a leading health information integration company, has integrated BioIQ's industry leading biometric testing solutions into the company's wellness platform, further expanding MediKeeper's comprehensive wellness offerings.

BioIQ offers several methods for gathering biometric data from employees and dependents: through at-home test kits, at on-site screening events, by visiting a local lab, and through a visit to a personal physician. Regardless of which method people choose, they enjoy a cohesive interface for ordering tests, scheduling appointments, receiving reminders, and viewing results, with intuitive graphs to monitor year-over-year trends. BioIQ coordinates these various screening methods, uploads the results to MediKeeper's personal health records, and integrates the data with MediKeeper's other wellness services. The BioIQ platform is complemented by mobile data access.

"BioIQ is a perfect fit for the MediKeeper platform," said Jason Peoples, SVP Sales, Marketing, and Business Development at MediKeeper. "Companies and health plans that are looking to identify more advanced ways to keep employees and members working toward better, healthier lifestyles now have the screening tools they need to assess progress. We welcome BioIQ to our platform."

"Wellness programs succeed to the extent that they can engage employees," said Justin Bellante, CEO at BioIQ. "Our consumer-friendly screening solutions have proven their ability to increase wellness participation. We are pleased to be working closely with MediKeeper to help individuals understand their risk for chronic conditions such as diabetes and heart disease, and to help employers make knowledgeable decisions about the health care needs of their populations."
