Now at the forefront of telemedicine nationwide, Metro Pacific Investments Corporation (PSE: MPI)’s mWell PH, a fully integrated health and wellness mobile app, has introduced another groundbreaking feature, a personal in-app health tracker called the mWellness Score.
This breakthrough feature allows mWell users to generate daily mWellness Score that measures the amounts of exercise, light activity, sedentary behavior and sleep every day using data-driven methods without spending on extra gadgets or fitness wearables.
Scoring consistently above 80 indicates a healthy physical lifestyle and lowers the risk of developing chronic diseases such as diabetes and heart disease. Users can join the Steps Challenge, increase their daily physical activity and move up the leaderboard. Ranking is based on daily average step count making fitness more exciting, interactive, and an organic part of their lifestyle.
Chaye Cabal-Revilla, Chief Finance & Sustainability Officer of Metro Pacific Investments Corporation lauded the app’s additional feature.
“mWell is here to provide easy and convenient ways to improve overall health. Through the mWellness Score, we can empower more people to reduce disease risk and live their best life,” Cabal-Revilla said.
The mWellness Score was developed in partnership with an award-winning team of doctors and data scientists from Aktivolabs.
“We are committed to support mWell’s mission to transform healthcare delivery in the Philippines. Powered by Aktivolabs, the mWellness Score is a great start to this partnership. Now every Filipino using just a smartphone can make informed lifestyle choices daily to prevent chronic disease and live longer and healthier lives,” Gourab Mukherjee, CEO & Co-Founder of Aktivolabs, shared.
Apart from the mWellness Score, mWell has also made available customized fitness and nutrition programs developed by Olympians and exercise physiologists as well as calorie-controlled recipes created by dietitians and nutritionists.
mWell continues its mission to restore health through telemedicine with its growing line-up of partner doctors from top hospitals such as Makati Medical Center, Cardinal Santos, Asian Hospital and Medical Center De Los Santos Medical Center, Manila Doctors Hospital, and Marikina Valley Medical Center.
It is supported by industry and technology stalwarts, including CareSpan, Telus, LotusFlare, Aktivolabs, and active8me, and runs on fast secure payments via PayMaya.
