Keas is updating its health management platform Health Hub in an effort to “increase engagement, improve population health and reduce employer healthcare costs.” The two upgrades, SmartHealth Engine and Keas+, are made to lower costs for employers, which in the U.S. alone are spending more than $620 billion on healthcare benefits.

Keas SmartHealth Engine is an intelligent rules-based recommendation engine for personalized benefits and wellbeing programs. It delivers a custom program to plan members via the Keas+ interface, and can be configured to generate targeted health programs based on each employer’s defined requirements, real-time user behavior, demographic data and current corporate priorities.

Keas+ is a mobile-first solution that promises to deliver benefits to the right employee at the right time. It can be accessed via iPhone and Android devices, as well as web and tablet browsers. It is built to meet the needs of large employers, and is fully configurable to address each employer’s unique brand and messaging requirements. Keas+ offers a single point of contact for all benefits across physical, mental, and financial health, providing users with access to social networking, health quizzes, challenges, quests, health screenings, and ACA-compliant wellness incentives.

“With the SmartHealth Engine and Keas+, we’ve made it easier for HR and benefits teams to personalize the marketing of health benefits to multiple risk segments, seamlessly integrated to drive utilization of benefits that target improved health and reduced costs,” said Josh Stevens, CEO of Keas.

Keas Health Hub registers an average of 51% of an eligible population and engages employees and their dependents an average of 14 times per month. The company anticipates that these upgrades will further elevate both enrollment and engagement experience.
