Generalized behavior change methods don’t work
It’s clear that poor lifestyle choices cause many of today’s leading chronic health problems, but getting people to change their behavior is challenging. Some patients can quit drinking cold turkey when told to do so by their doctor. Most patients need continual guidance from groups like alcoholics anonymous. Behavior change is a long-term continuous battle that’s different for each patient. The current approach of having doctors lecture patients for five minutes about healthy habits and leaving them with informational pamphlets doesn’t work.
The Personalized behavior intervention promise
Because each patient responds differently to behavior and lifestyle change recommendations, you need an engine that provides personalized guidance and long-term support. The Mahalo behavior change engine builds on that premise. The platform mixes notifications to boost engagement with live one-on-one coaching sessions.
