Frequently Asked Questions
Why did Health Union acquire WEGO Health?
The combination of Health Union’s scale and depth in the condition experience, coupled with WEGO Health’s breadth of patient leaders, advocates and influencers in virtually all conditions, made this acquisition a natural next step in the evolution of our company. It further establishes our commitment to patient engagement and shaping the future of social health. With the addition of WEGO Health’s patient leader network, Health Union will become the largest community of experts, patient advocates and healthcare leaders, further expanding our footprint to pioneer the most powerful force in social health.
How will the integration of WEGO Health with Health Union benefit patients, patient leaders, advocates, healthcare partners and clients?
Health Union and WEGO Health are coming together to create the most influential company in social health. With the addition of WEGO Health’s Patient Leader Network, Health Union will not only expand opportunities within its online health communities but also create and deliver unique solutions that impact all people on their health journey, from patients who passively seek information to patient advocates and influencers who actively share health information on multiple social media platforms.
Our vision for Health Union with WEGO Health is to connect people through social health in even more groundbreaking and meaningful ways together. With expanded opportunities and solutions that meet people where they are, we can activate patients on a massive scale through online communities and patient leader networks, identify new conditions to support and continue to create value for everyone we serve. The depth and breadth of our impact together provides our partners with a cohesive source for all of their patient centered marketing needs.
Are the companies’ names changing?
WEGO Health, its products and services, are becoming part of Health Union. Throughout its history, WEGO Health has built strong recognition and trusted relationships through its patient leader network, awards and influencer programs. Over time, these offerings will be called “Health Union WEGO” (e.g., WEGO Health Awards will become Health Union WEGO Awards) as a way to assure all stakeholders of the same experiences they know and trust, now existing within Health Union. Together with WEGO Health, Health Union will continue to deliver the gold standard in patient engagement and shape the future of social health.
