What stops you from getting your steps in? Your schedule? Motivation? Or is something else stopping you from hitting your exercise goals? The Omada Insights Lab is constantly ideating about how to help members overcome barriers, including physical activity-related barriers. Here’s a prime example of the meaningful work they’re engaged in to help members: ⭐Step 1: Identify the segment of the population Omada identified members who indicated a physical activity related barrier and had at least a one week history of tracking physical activity. ⭐Step 2: Try out a new way of delivering services to that population Create a “dynamic tile” with a CTA on the Omada app homepage asking members to identify what’s getting in the way and how to increase your activity. The CTA clicks out to resources about addressing barriers to physical activity. ⭐Step 3: Compare to what we did before Meanwhile, other segments saw a generic home tile that said “Busy week? Plan to do 1 thing for your health every day”. ⭐Step 4: The results Members who clicked on the dynamic home tile INCREASED activity by 9 MIN. PER WEEK compared to the week prior. Members who saw a home tile with generic language DECREASED activity by 5 MIN. PER WEEK. ⭐The Takeaway Our outreach may have resulted in increased physical activity! Omada is all about continuous learning and innovations with operational experiments like this one that help us support members, meet them where they’re at, and build lasting behavior...
