This collaboration is designed to enhance healthcare delivery for FWD customers, improving health outcomes through innovative, cost-effective solutions.
Binayak Dutta, Managing Director of FWD Group, emphasised the importance of shifting from a reactive to a proactive healthcare model: “At FWD, we believe that moving towards proactive healthcare is crucial for giving our customers the best opportunity to celebrate living. The integration of advanced diagnostics into the healthcare ecosystem will improve patient outcomes in ways we’ve never seen before.”
This partnership aligns with FWD’s broader health initiatives, including the launch of FWD HealthyMe in May 2024. FWD HealthyMe aims to foster partnerships with healthcare providers and industry leaders, reinforcing FWD’s commitment to being a proactive health partner in Asia. The initiative complements the company’s life insurance, critical illness, and medical offerings.
Sarah Salvilla, Group Chief Health Officer at FWD Group, expressed her enthusiasm about the collaboration with Roche: “By working with Roche, we aim to accelerate health insurance innovation in Asia as part of our vision of changing the way people feel about insurance. Roche, a global leader in diagnostics, conducted 29 billion tests last year alone, and we’re delighted to partner with them.”
Roche’s navify® digital solutions are designed to turn lab and clinical data into actionable insights, delivering both operational and financial benefits while helping to personalize care.
The integration of Roche’s solutions will roll out in selected FWD markets over the coming months. This strategic collaboration aims to drive meaningful improvements in health insurance services and outcomes across Asia, setting a new standard for customer care.
Lance Little, Managing Director of Roche Diagnostics Asia Pacific, highlighted the potential impact of the partnership: “We are excited to collaborate with FWD Group to promote early diagnosis for their customers, leveraging the latest research and technology. Early diagnoses lead to better health outcomes and can encourage lifestyle changes that keep people healthy and out of hospitals.”
