What is Healm?

Healm is a dynamic decision-support platform created specifically to address type 2 diabetes prevention in the workplace. It guides employer benefits and HR teams through every step of offering the National DPP lifestyle change program—from understanding the evidence to choosing delivery models and tracking impact—without needing in-house expertise in diabetes prevention.

Inside Healm, you’ll find interactive learning modules, videos, and tools that explain the National DPP lifestyle change program, clarify employer options, and translate complex policy and program details into clear, actionable decisions.

Why Healm?

Type 2 diabetes is one of the most costly and common health risks facing today’s workforce, and employees with prediabetes are at higher risk for diabetes, heart disease, and stroke. Traditional approaches focus on treatment after the fact, driving up healthcare costs and impacting productivity.

Healm shifts the focus upstream. By helping employers prioritize prevention and offer the National DPP as a covered benefit, Healm enables organizations to reduce risk, improve employee health and well-being, and avoid avoidable costs—all for a fraction of what unmanaged diabetes can cost each year.

Key advantages:

  • Free-to-use platform designed specifically for employers and benefit decision-makers

  • Built around the National DPP lifestyle change program to prevent or delay type 2 diabetes

  • Proprietary decision-support software that helps you choose, implement, and optimize a diabetes prevention benefit

  • Personalized Dashboard to track your progress, metrics, and outcomes over time

  • Tailored technical assistance and access to an Employer Network of peers and experts
