A Healthy Competition: High-Tech and High-Touch

ATLANTA, April 25, 2018 -- Sharecare, the digital health company helping people manage all their health in one place, today announced that several of its executives will be featured during three special sessions at HLTH, the new groundbreaking event for healthcare innovation, which will be held on May 6-9, 2018 at the ARIA, Las Vegas. During each of their sessions, Sharecare’s speakers will demonstrate the company’s commitment to disrupting the industry without disenfranchising its stakeholders and showcase its ability to empower consumers to take an active role in improving their own health, as well as the wellbeing of their communities. 

On Monday, May 7, 2018, at 12:10 p.m. PDT, Jeff Arnold, co-founder, chairman and CEO of Sharecare, and Dan Buettner, founder of Blue Zones, LLC, will speak during a general session titled, “A Healthy Competition: High-Tech and High-Touch.” Recognizing the movement, friction and change happening in healthcare today, particularly in high-tech versus high-touch approaches, the two thought leaders – one a digital health pioneer and the other an explorer and bestselling author – will discuss how they are putting their digital differences aside and partnering to improve the wellbeing of communities across the globe.

On Wednesday, May 9, 2018, at 8:40 a.m. PDT, Dean Ornish, M.D., founder of Ornish Lifestyle Medicine™ at Sharecare, will deliver a general session keynote titled, “The Transformative Power of Lifestyle Medicine.” Dr. Ornish will discuss how lifestyle medicine can reverse the progression of the most common chronic diseases. Further, he will reveal findings from hospitals and health systems around the country that are realizing better clinical outcomes, bigger cost savings and better adherence than ever before by instituting Ornish Lifestyle Medicine, the first program of its kind to be reimbursed by Medicare. Available through Sharecare, the Ornish program is covered by Medicare and most major insurance companies, and, most importantly, has helped thousands of people from across the country take their lives back.

Also on Wednesday, May 9, 2018 at 10:50 a.m. PDT, Sharecare executives will be featured in a panel discussion – “Innovate: Re-imagine Health” – alongside David Hoke, senior director, associate health and wellbeing for Walmart. Moderated by Howard Gruverman, executive vice president of enterprise for Sharecare, Walmart’s Hoke and Ashlin Jones, vice president, research and advanced data science for Sharecare, will discuss how new health and productivity technologies and strategies are transforming employer wellness programs into highly effective and practical outcomes-based solutions that address the whole person at work and home.
