Finding time to visit the doctor can be difficult. Sometimes, all you need is a little reassurance to put your mind at ease. Skip the wait at your doctor's office or urgent care and talk to a real medical professional anytime, anywhere. Our network of board-certified doctors can diagnose, make recommendations, and can often prescribe right over phone. Best of all, there’s no co-pay.
Included in your PHMP is a Behavioral Health Benefit. Whether you need help with a specific issue or just want to talk through your concerns with someone, our team of board-certified therapists, PhDs, and physicians are here for you online or over the phone.
PHMP Health Coaches are trained professionals who know how to design a program specifically for you. Tailored training, prevention, and dietary programs are customized to address your needs and goals.
PHMP Health Coaches are also trained to identify chronic conditions through medical benefit claims, the Health Risk Assessment, Biometric Screening data, and other pertinent health information to ensure all health advice is accurate and precise.
PHMP Health Coaches start by walking you through a self-assessment, identifying areas you'd like to improve concerning your health. Lifestyle choices and behaviors account for 50% of what determines an individual's health—more than genetics, environment, and access to care.
Chronic conditions are also addressed during health coaching. We provide you with up-to-date healthcare information regarding general disease concepts, nutrition, preventative measures, and more, to help facilitate understanding of your health status.
Just as the coach for a sports team motivates players, a PHMP Health Coach motivates you as you're working toward specific health-related goals. PHMP Health Coaches serve to motivate and inspire you as you work toward your goals—and they're there to celebrate your achievements, both big and small.
PHMP has an extensive knowledgebase filled with health articles on a variety of topics. New health articles are added to the PHMP's Online Knowledgebase on a weekly basis and are delivered to members via text and email, ensuring that all PHMP members are kept up to date on the latest healthcare news.
The Health Risk Assessment is a brief questionnaire that reveals the current picture of your health. Our trained and certified health coaches then determine which aspects of your well-being need the most attention and begin constructing a tailor-made Proactive Health Management Plan just for you.
The Proactive Health Management Plan contains a non-invasive, confidential Health Risk Assessment (HRA), which can be completed at enrollment or with a health coach over the phone.
The HRA provides a snapshot of your current health and lifestyle, then identifies major risk factors that may be of concern.
Information provided by the HRA allows our team of health and lifestyle professionals to create your personalized Proactive Health Management Plan.
Here are some sample questions from the Health Risk Assessment. These yes-or-no questions determine what sorts of health issues you may or may not be having. From there, our Health Coaches start crafting the perfect Proactive Health Management Plan for you.
High blood pressure
Weight management disorder / challenges
Elevated cholesterol
Anxiety
Congestive heart failure / heart disease
Depression

Biometric screenings provide the backbone to crafting your Proactive Health Management Plan. Included are the basics of measurement: height, weight, BMI, blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and much more.
The Proactive Health Management Plan’s biometric screening report helps our coaches perform as effectively as possible when managing your health. The biometric screening report not only gives detailed numbers on your current readings and where you fit on a scale of risk, it also gives recommendations for lifestyle changes and steps you can take to get back on track. Plus, it can also identify risk factors for illnesses, such as diabetes and heart disease, years before full onset.
Ever wonder why some people can eat bad food, rarely exercise, and yet still maintain a slim profile? It might be in your genes! The Proactive Health Management Plan's DNA Screening can provide answers to that and many other questions, such as how your body metabolizes caffeine and alcohol, and what types of food and vitamins benefit you most.
The Proactive Health Management Plan's DNA report can determine how your body senses fullness in degrees of normal, delayed and impaired. All of which tells you whether you have tendencies to overeat. Helpful tips can then assist you in proactively changing your behaviors to promote healthier eating habits.
Caffeine packs a buzz in just about any form—but how does your body react to it? The Proactive Health Management Plan's DNA Report can tell you how your body metabolizes caffeine, and how that affects the intensity and duration of your coffee buzz.
When your body takes longer to metabolize alcohol, it results in a “flush” -- red cheeks, skin blotches, headaches, and increased heart rate and blood pressure. The Proactive Health Management Plan's DNA Report determines how likely you are to flush with alcohol consumption.
The Proactive Health Management Plan's DNA Report analyzes how fat is transported in the blood and where fat is stored, all of which can help you plan your next fitness routine.
NOTE: The Proactive Health Management Plan’s DNA Screening is currently not available to members who live in NY, NJ and RI.

Breast ultrasounds use sound waves to create computer images of the inside of the breast to determine if a lump is solid or filled with fluid. If you are at high risk for breast cancer, are pregnant, or have increased breast density, breast ultrasounds are a powerful and important diagnostic tool.
Thermography detects and records temperature changes on the surface of the skin. Thermography is also used to screen for breast cancer using an infrared thermal camera to take photos of areas exhibiting divergent temperatures.
