Fitbit added Fitbit Charge 2 into the recently expanded UnitedHealthcare Motion wellness program, powered by Qualcomm Life Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Qualcomm Inc. Offered to employers by UnitedHealthcare (UNH), UnitedHealthcare Motion is an employer-sponsored wearable device wellness program that will soon enable people using Fitbit Charge 2 to track against the program’s activity metrics.
“This integration is a first of its kind for Fitbit and brings together market leaders in healthcare and technology to drive better health outcomes and cost savings for both consumers and employers,” said James Park, co-founder and CEO, Fitbit. “It’s a demonstration of Fitbit’s commitment to delivering innovative solutions that combine the power of technology with insights to help people take a more proactive role in their health and offer motivation to reach their goals.”
The UnitedHealthcare Motion feature will be available in early 2017 on Fitbit Charge 2 devices and can be activated for eligible program participants.
