Swiss Re partners with health insurtech dacadoo

Global reinsurer  Swiss Re has partnered with Swiss health technology and insurtech company  dacadoo to “unlock the next generation of risk assessment” through its MyWellLife offering.

The MyWellLife platform is a mobile-first, digital engagement platform that acts as a smart health coach, motivating users to achieve and maintain healthy lifestyle habits.

“Insurers can get to market quickly through an engaging platform that leverages the experience and expertise of our partnership, and which requires no technology investment on their side. We are happy to offer our clients a platform that opens up possibilities for dynamic risk assessment of modifiable risk factors.”

Peter Ohnemus, president and CEO of dacadoo, added: “We are thrilled to partner with Swiss Re and offer insurers and their members around the world dacadoo’s next generation digital health engagement solutions.
