"BeOnTrack" truly underscores AXA's commitment to be a lifelong partner to the customers. This Programme, supported by the expert trio, offers the following one-stop features: 1) Personalised support from medical and healthcare professionals Our expert trio, comprising of family doctors, dietitians and personal trainers, will conduct in-person consultation sessions with each participant to formulate personalised and tailored health reboot plans for managing blood pressure, blood glucose or body weight. The programme will start off with a family doctor consultation session for a comprehensive health assessment. The dietitian and personal trainer will then make recommendations on future diet and exercise routines in subsequent sessions. Additionally, a range of specialised laboratory tests are available to participants subject to their plan options. The test results will help the expert team to better understand the overall health conditions and accurately evaluate individual health progress to provide relevant health advice. The team will formulate the most effective health improvement plan with necessary adjustments. 2) Fully automated digital monitoring device tokeep track of real-time health metrics Depending on the reboot plan of the participant's choice for blood pressure, blood glucose or body weight, participants can leverage a digital self-monitoring device to monitor their health metrics with real-time synchronisation to the digital health platform. These automatic recording and tracking feature enable the expert trio to make appropriate adjustments to the health improvement plan to help participants reach their health goals more easily and effectively over the course of the one-year programme. Moreover, the devices also present helpful information to reflect health status, and trigger personal notifications and reminders to prompt for health check-ups when abnormal health metrics are detected in order to prevent illness before it strikes.
