Shared value
Greg Levine, Managing Director, Sales and Distribution, Vitality, said: “Winning this award is further proof that our vision for the future of health insurance is genuinely improving the market and pushing it forward. At Vitality, we have turned the traditional insurance model on its head, not just delivering healthcare in the moments that matter, but by pioneering an approach to health insurance hinged on behaviour change as a force for social good. Through our Shared Value model, we introduced the concept of wellbeing and making people healthier to the market. As clients increasingly look to get more from their insurance provider and with engagement with digital pathways higher than ever, we are constantly evolving our proposition to deliver value from day one and make it quicker and easier for them to access care when they need it.”
Vitality Chief Marketing Officer, Keith Kropman, added: “This award is a celebration of the innovation and hard work that goes into our brand. We are continuing to push the boundaries of what a financial services company should look like and provide, delivering not only significant business success, but doing it in a way that makes a tangible difference to our members as they live healthier lives.”
