The Problem

Lower Patient Activation Drives Higher Costs

DayWise nudging helps patients move through the four activation levels by delivering timely cues that encourage simple health actions.

 

Early prompts build awareness and support adherence to tasks like medication or exercises.

 

Repeated nudges reinforce routines and strengthen self-management skills.

 

Over time, this habit formation helps patients become active participants in their own care.

LEVEL ONE

Disengaged and overwhelmed

"My doctor is in charge of my health."

Individuals are passive and lack confidence.

Knowledge is low, goal-orientation is weak, and adherence is poor. 

LEVEL TWO

Becoming aware, but still struggling

"I could be doing more."

Individuals have some knowledge, but large gaps remain. They believe health is largely out of their control, but can set simple goals.

LEVEL THREE

Taking action

"I'm part of my health care team."

Individuals have the key facts and are building self-management skills.

They strive for best practice behaviors, and are goal-oriented. 

LEVEL FOUR

Maintaining behaviors and pushing further

"I'm my own advocate."

Individuals have adopted new behaviors, but may struggle in times of stress or change.

Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is a key focus.

When patients take ownership of their health, provider costs descrease

and patient outcomes improve. DayWise products help transition patients through the four levels of patient activation.

By helping patients progress through higher levels of activation, DayWise nudging can contribute to lowering healthcare utilization and associated medical costs.

 

Timely prompts support medication adherence, therapy routines, and preventive behaviors that reduce complications.

 

As patients become more engaged and consistent in managing their health, the likelihood of acute events and hospital visits decreases.

 

Over time, this shift toward higher activation levels translates into more efficient care and lower billed medical costs.
