BioSignia Announces Joint Marketing Agreement with Hooper Holmes

RTP, N.C. – BioSignia, maker of next generation preventive health solutions, today announced a joint marketing agreement with the Health & Wellness Division of Hooper Holmes, Inc (AMEX:HH). Per the agreement, Hooper Holmes will actively promote BioSignia’s Know Your Number® program as part of its complete wellness solution. In addition, BioSignia will market Hooper Holmes' Health & Wellness as a preferred partner for on-site biometric screenings services.

“We are excited about this partnership because of the mutual business opportunities it creates,” said Tim Smith, president and CEO of BioSignia. “Our Know Your Number program is a best-in-class, internet based, patented tool for performing disease-specific risk assessment and it’s the perfect compliment to the toolset of any company in the wellness, population health and disease management space.”

Know Your Number was developed to predict the likelihood of the onset of preventable diseases and also to inform individuals of how they compare to others who are the same age and ethnicity. This testing also reveals what fraction of a chronic disease risk is modifiable and lets customers know what factors (e.g. lack of exercise, smoking) are contributing to the risks of developing specific chronic conditions. Findings are communicated in easy-to-interpret, visually compelling reports that also help individuals track their progress.

“BioSignia’s Know Your Number program is a uniquely valuable tool for assessing and comparing the health of individuals and presenting information in a clear and easily understood way,” said Chris Behling, President of Hooper Holmes’ Health & Wellness Division. “This is an excellent complement to our unique ability to collect and analyze health data anywhere in the country and a further link in our complete supply chain solution for wellness, disease management, and managed care companies. We think Know Your Number will deliver real value to our customers.”

Hooper Holmes is the only company that meets all the screening needs of wellness, disease management and managed care companies. They schedules screenings, manufacture supplies, ship equipment, screen groups and individuals, conduct all laboratory testing and manage the process from end-to-end.

“Through our partnership with Hooper Holmes, we will be able to offer this powerful information to more people, institutions and companies in our continued efforts to make a positive impact on health outcomes and costs,” said Smith.
