Koa Health is pleased to announce a new partnership with Swiss Life Network, a global provider of employee benefits solutions. This collaboration will bring comprehensive, evidence-based mental wellbeing support to Swiss Life Network’s international corporate clients and their employees.

Mental health challenges are on the rise globally, and the struggle is felt not only by individuals but also by businesses, with increasing absenteeism, reduced productivity, and rising claims costs. Mental health continues to be a priority for employees, particularly younger generations, who report higher levels of stress and anxiety and place a premium on access to mental wellbeing support through their employer.

Swiss Life Network has chosen Koa Health as their wellbeing solution partner because of Koa Health's commitment to delivering evidence-based solutions to a global audience. Koa Health’s solution, Koa Care 360, is designed to become an integral part of a company’s benefits ecosystem, enabling organizations to better support employee well-being and productivity while fostering a positive impact on their bottom line. Clients of SLN will be able to leverage the following benefits through Koa Care 360 by Koa Health:

  • Engaging, impactful support: Access to a comprehensive mental health support platform that can be rolled out across entire populations, enhancing engagement and outcomes.
  • Prevention-forward focus: A solution designed to address mental health challenges upstream, helping to reduce future costs related to mental health claims and absences.
  • Seamless integration: Koa Care 360 can easily integrate with existing health and wellbeing services (including health plans), streamlining the employee experience and removing barriers to support.
  • Global availability: Designed to meet the needs of dispersed global workforces, Koa Care 360 is available in 8 languages to ensure all employees, regardless of location, have access to high-quality care.

The positive impact of Koa Health’s solutions is proven and measurable, backed by high-quality, peer-reviewed research in collaboration with internationally renowned academic partners. Koa Care 360 provides a seamless experience for users, offering clinically validated mental health support for a range of concerns including burnout, stress, anxious thoughts, and more.

“We’re excited to partner with Swiss Life Network to bring our clinically rigorous mental health solutions to global workforces." said Dr. Oliver Harrison, CEO and Founder at Koa Health. “Mental health impacts every aspect of life, from personal wellbeing to productivity at work. Our platform empowers employers to offer holistic mental health support that makes a real difference in the lives of their employees. This partnership marks an exciting chapter in our mission to transform workplace mental health globally in the face of rising mental health challenges.”

Michael Hansen, CEO at Swiss Life Network, said, "The partnership with Koa Health is another important step for Swiss Life Network, our insurance partners, and our clients. Insurers around the world need good partners to support their clients’ needs for mental health services. I find the approach from Koa Health quite unique, given their strong focus on evidence-based services. I am very happy to welcome Koa Health as part of the Swiss Life Network family."
