On the back of a successful pilot, PAI Health and Gjensidige launching enhanced integration of apps


VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 06, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PAI Health, a heart health software company, today announces a new and extended strategic partnership with Gjensidige Forsikring ASA, a leading Nordic insurance group listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange.

This new agreement follows upon the success of a previous collaboration to pilot PAI’s heart rate based activity score amongst Gjensidige customers. Results found PAI to be a leading intervention to motivate people to perform increased physical activity and guide them toward a heart-healthy lifestyle.

PAI Health and Gjensidige will also partner on new projects throughout 2019. This includes augmentation of PAI’s services and health data insights within Gjensidige’s new digital IVER service proposition. This pilot program will incorporate PAI’s ground-breaking activity metric into the intuitive IVER app. PAI is an effective way to engage insurer customers and gain meaningful data insights founded on proven science of cardiorespiratory fitness. IVER allocates “IVER Points” to reward customers for positive health behavior and are redeemable for a range of meaningful health services and policy discounts.

Peter Taylor, CEO PAI Health, said, “We’re delighted to be extending our partnership with Gjensidige following the success of our previous pilot. As digital innovation-led companies, we both very much look forward to jointly accelerating that success, given PAI’s proven value to motivate heart health, and IVER’s differentiated rewards to increase customer participation and create lasting change.”

Amar Murtaza, Nordic Service Product Manager, said, ”PAI Health is a key strategic component of our new IVER service offering. We are excited to extend our collaboration to benefit customer health. We very much look forward to building further market momentum in the future.”
