"I found it interesting that people are more likely
to engage with the Web than with a personal health coach
and there are significant statistics that support this.
Furthermore, men are even more likely to use the Web than
any other resource for wellness." Toby Ashabranner,
Manager Strategic Benefits at Affiliated Computer Services |
| |
"I was really impressed with the effectiveness of eHealth
tools. After hearing the stats today that support the
high success rates from using web tools, I plan to look
into these options further and perhaps give one a try."
Janis Brunworth, Texas Women's University, Leadership
Institute |

"The industry is moving away from 'paper' mentality
and is tailoring health education to meet the needs of
the employees." Mark Simeroth, Director of Human
Resources at Diocese of Fort Worth |
