Nathan Derstine

Intel

Nate Derstine provides leadership in furthering EHRWG's goal of fostering innovation in corporate wellness program design through his work in developing EHRWG's pilots / case studies. Nate has led the development of the group's case study specification document which depicts the components of a leading-edge corporate wellness program, one that incorporates Continua devices and reduces employer costs as well as improves the quality of care. This case study document provides the required foundation for employers to understand how to operationalize innovative health strategies that incorporate leading edge technologies that positively impacts its employees and bottom-line; but more specifically, assists Continua member companies on how they could quantifiably demonstrate the value of employing a core system of technologies to cognitively "connect" individuals to their modifiable health lifestyles, the hidden complexity of lifestyle interacting with physiology being simplified and visualized for each person. Nate's contributions have accelerated the workgroup's efforts in assisting organizations capture the next quantum leap in worksite wellness effectiveness.
