Working with insurers to improve cardio-kidney-metabolic health and reduce claim costs

Our clinically-proven* platform helps patients with cardiovascular, kidney and metabolic (CKM) conditions to increase physical activity and improve health, reducing demand for expensive healthcare services.

With a range of specialist programmes designed by expert physiotherapists - including digital rehabilitation, GLP-1-supported weight loss, and tailored content for transplantation and dialysis - we can help insurers meet the increasingly complex needs of members with CKM diseases, while tackling growing care costs.

Helping insurers tackle rapid growth in CKM disease worldwide

Over a billion people worldwide have at least one of the main CKM conditions. Rates of cardio-kidney-metabolic conditions are rising rapidly as the population ages, increasing the likelihood of claims and placing strain on healthcare services.

These diseases often coexist and exacerbate each other, ultimately resulting in complex medical care being required to treat adverse outcomes.

Physical inactivity and lifestyle pose a major challenge among this patient group. While there is no cure for CKM disease, increasing physical activity and encouraging better condition management can significantly improve health - lowering claims and helping to create a more sustainable business.

Wrap-around care for GLP-1 weight management prescribing

For insurers who want to offer access to weight loss medications to their customers, our wrap-around digital programmes can be provided alongside GLP-1s for people with cardio-kidney-metabolic conditions, helping to meet prescribing guidelines for the medications to be offered with exercise and dietary support.

Feedback from clinicians and patients

  • Anthony, a Beamer

    Anthony - Patient

    “Being able to freely access Beam has enabled me to extend my exercise routine by participating in a range of on-demand classes. I feel this has greatly improved my ability to exercise different muscle groups and has led to me feeling a much improved overall level of fitness. Some days it can be challenge to summon the enthusiasm to do a class, but the way Beam works always leaves you feeling glad that you did and keeps you coming back for more”

    “This is a fabulous initiative for patients, carers and the staff looking after them. I love the focus on living well as opposed to living with illness. Huge congratulations to all who’ve made this possible”

    “Beam gives us the ability to reclaim control of our lives and our health. Beam has transformed my life and allowed me to exercise safely with other people like me. It’s like a small family!”

  • Sandra Currie OBE, CEO of Kidney Research UK

    “We know that keeping active makes us feel good, but when you’re living with a long term condition, it’s not always easy. Beam gives people the chance to take control of physical and mental wellbeing, at their own pace, with guidance (if needed) from people who understand the complexities”
