LAS VEGAS, Oct. 9, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- b.well today announced at the HLTH 2023 conference that Samsung Health will use the b.well Connected Health platform to transform how consumers manage their health and engage with healthcare solutions and services. This new offering will enable Samsung Health users to create a longitudinal health record, receive proactive health insights, and conveniently access care from a growing network of trusted providers — all through a single secure application on Galaxy smartphones.

"As one of the world's leading electronics companies, Samsung is uniquely positioned to empower consumers with proactive insights and give them convenient access to care," said Dr. Hon Pak, Head of Digital Health Team at Samsung Electronics. "With b.well, we are planning to create a consumer health experience that is frictionless, connected, and easy to navigate — the way healthcare should be."

Samsung Health selects b.well to transform how users manage health and engage with healthcare solutions and services.
The seamless integration between Samsung Health with the b.well Connected Health platform is a significant step toward providing consumers with a unified and holistic health experience. This integration empowers Samsung Health users to consolidate a 360-degree view of their health, which not only includes clinical records but also encompasses wearables, pharmacy, laboratory, and insurance data including that from CMS and Veterans Affairs. For consumers, this places them in control of their data, allowing them to determine how it is shared and utilized.

Beyond a longitudinal health record, Samsung Health users will receive deeply personalized insights and proactive health recommendations, driven by the b.well platform's algorithmic approach using Clinical Quality Measures and advanced analytics. The b.well platform will also establish direct connections to participating in-person, digital, and virtual care providers, ensuring users can easily act on insights and connect to the care they need. With health data tracked on their devices, users might receive a reminder for a preventive screening, a prompt to follow up on a care plan from their physician, or a helpful reminder for someone they care for. Every recommendation is tailored to the individual's unique health profile.

"Today's news represents a huge step toward a healthcare experience that is more transparent, and convenient. Health data is just the beginning — it's the personalized insights and actionable care connections that will create meaningful change for consumers," said Kristen Valdes, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of b.well. "We are excited to support Samsung's vision to create a truly connected healthcare ecosystem where consumers are in control of their health data and receive timely insights alongside clear, actionable choices that make it easy to manage their entire family's health."
