MEDICASH: TRADITIONAL VALUES, BOLD INNOVATIONS
A lot can happen in 175 years. Some good, some bad, change is inevitable. What matters is how you adapt to the changes around you.
Medicash were established in a similar era to Liverpool Chamber, starting in 1871, and in that time, we have gone from being The Penny in the Pound Fund, a Liverpool organisation helping to fund Victorian hospitals, to the largest corporate Health Cash Plan Provider in the UK today. There are many reasons for our ongoing success but one of the most important is our commitment to innovation.
At Medicash, we are driven by the idea that we can always do better and bring greater improvements to the lives of our customers, colleagues and the community, and this manifests itself in our constant drive towards innovative new health benefits and tools that deliver the most meaningful impact possible.
One such innovation comes in the form of HealthLens, one of the newest additions to our ever-growing suite of technological advancements aimed at improving the quality of life of our members.
HealthLens is a Transdermal Optical Imaging platform that uses a smartphone camera pointed at the face to interpret subtle changes in the behaviour of blood flow beneath the skin’s surface, leading to the ability to determine key indicators such as blood pressure and heart rate, as well as the likelihood of serious health conditions such as heart disease and stroke. By regularly monitoring their base level indicators, policyholders have an ongoing handle on their health level and subsequently have control over their own wellbeing. This gives reassurance in the knowledge they are making data-backed decisions on how to improve their health and wellbeing.

Digital health monitoring identifies warning signs before they develop into serious problems, and through the sharing of anonymised, aggregated data, this will enable organisations to spot patterns of concern across their workforce and intervene before matters reach crisis point. This innovative approach to health monitoring puts powerful tools into the palms of our customers, enabling them to take control of their health like never before.
