It's important for us all to look after our physical and mental health. The Aviva DigiCare+ Workplace app can help you do this, offering a range of health-related benefits. Giving access to a large network of medical professionals.

The app and services are available to employees insured under one of Aviva's Group Protection policies. And are provided by Square Health. They're noncontractual benefits that Aviva can change or withdraw at any time.

Terms and conditions apply. These can be viewed within the app and must be agreed to before use. The privacy policy can also be viewed in-app before signing up.  The app and services are available to employees who are permanent residents of Great Britain, Northern Ireland the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man. There may be limits to the number of times these services can be used. Full allowances can be checked within the app.

We all know how important it is to keep on top of our health, but we don't always give it the attention it needs.  

Aviva DigiCare+ Workplace offers an annual health assessment through a quick self-administered fingerprick blood test which can be taken at home and posted back to Square Health for analysis.

The test looks at 20 different health markers to help spot problems early on including the risk of diabetes, cholesterol status and liver health.

Test results are received in a personalised health report which will include any recommended courses of action. A regular health check can help keep on top of health concerns, detect issues early and prevent future health problems.

It's not always easy to get a doctor's appointment so the digital GP service helps to provide a solution for non-emergency health matters.

Available between 8am and 8pm, 7 days a week, and offers 20- minute video consultations with a registered GP. Available to you and your eligible family members, it offers medical advice and guidance and the peace of mind of being able to speak to a doctor quickly.

There's an option to view GP biographies before booking a consultation and to keep the same GP for multiple appointments. Simply complete a short section within the app to give some health background, then book the appointment.

With appointments usually available within 3 hours, it offers fast flexible access to medical advice.

Medication costs apply and if the next day at home delivery service is selected, then delivery charges will also apply.

This service is useful for everyday medical issues which normally mean a visit to the GP.

An initial diagnosis can come as a huge shock so a second opinion could offer new information and give some peace of mind.

The second medical opinion service gives access to a network of UK based clinical experts covering physical and mental health conditions.

They can provide their medical opinion on a diagnosis originally given by a primary UK treating consultant.

Aviva DigiCare+ Workplace allows you to share your second medical opinion consultations with your eligible family members. It offers face to face, telephone or in app consultations, a medical expert is then chosen based on their field of expertise or location.

Once the necessary medical records are gathered the experts will review the case and issue a report detailing their diagnosis and recommended treatment plan. A second medical opinion could offer the confidence to make important decisions about health and treatment paths.

Mental health is as important as physical health, acting quickly to prevent and detect mental wellbeing issues and getting help as early as possible can make a big difference.

Aviva DigiCare+ Workplace Mental Health Consultations offers you and your eligible family members quick access to tailored advice from qualified therapists.

Whether its workplace stress, money worries, big changes in life or other events that can affect our mental wellbeing, this confidential service can help.

Generally, within 48 hours patients can get advice from a psychotherapist or cognitive behavioural therapist by video or phone, from the privacy of their own home. It could help avoid potential NHS waiting times and private treatment costs.

Therapists provide advice and devise a personal treatment plan and if needed can signpost to further support. It also provides emotional support if faced with bereavement.

It makes good sense to establish a healthy relationship with food, nutrition affects our physical and mental health and wellbeing. Understanding more about it can help reset relationships with food and encourage long term lifestyle changes.

Through Aviva DigiCare+ Workplace, nutritionists offer advice on healthy eating plans and encourage accountability for food choices and help to break bad habits.

You have access to thirty-minute consultations with a trained nutritionist, which you can share with your eligible family members.

The nutritionist will develop a tailored personalised plan based around lifestyle factors such as sleep and stress. The advice aims to help establish relevant and achievable goals, focused around nutrition and lifestyle strategies.

2. Aviva will check the information and pass it to Square Health.

4. The employer loads the work email addresses of the insured employees into the portal. They can do this via a Microsoft Excel CSV file. You can find more information on the email upload process and the portal in our Customer Portal guide.

The employee email addresses are only shared with Square Health and only for the purpose of inviting employees to download the app and keeping them up to date with app and service information. View our data protection guide for information.

Prefer to pilot it first?

If you’d prefer to test the water and roll the app and services out to a few of your insured employees first, you might want to consider a pilot.

Follow the process above, loading only the chosen employee’s data into the portal and ask the pilot group to make use of some of the services such as the Health Check and Digital GP access.

You’ll then have an engaged group of employees who can help you promote the benefits to your workforce when you roll it out to the remaining employees. 

Promoting the app and services

Here are plenty of promotional materials to help you shout about the app and services and help make sure your employees are making the most of the benefits available.

Transcript  for video Gregg's health check story

I’m Gregg Parker, I live over in Redditch with my partner Kate. We’ve got a little girl, Frankie, who’s eight, and that’s my family.

I work as a sales manager in mortgage services which I’ve done for nearly twenty years now.

I’d been having problems with my foot for a few years, getting progressively worse. It was getting to a point where roughly every three months it would keep me off my feet for about a week.

And at the time I was going to the GP to try and work out what was wrong with it ultimately.

Initially they thought it could be ill-fitting shoes, but obviously the pain kept coming back. They sent me for x-rays but that again didn’t return any results and they were looking for kind of an underlying break or fracture or something along those lines, that wasn’t the case.

When I wasn’t getting any immediate answers on the problem with my foot, I remembered through the Aviva protection cover, that I could go through the annual Health Check.

It was really easy to order the Health Check through the app, on doing so I think it asked for a couple of basic measurements and then I would send off for the kit and it arrived within a couple of days.

The test itself was pretty straightforward. It was just a pin prick on the finger, drawing a few drops of blood, which I didn’t find too bad to do at all and then that was sent back obviously for analysis. And two or three days later I got like a PDF on an email, and you can access the same thing through the app with the results.

There was different things they were testing for, and one of those was gout. Which was ultimately is what it highlighted in me being outside of the normal range.

It also gave me the option of having an online consultation with a GP to discuss the results of the test.

The consultation itself was a video call, so it felt really personable, and really easy to do. So that was about a day or two after I’d had the results back and I was having that consultation with that GP.

We all know what it’s like trying to get a GP appointment these days and that’s nothing I had to worry about, so it made it really simple.

And through conversation with that GP, and what I was telling him about the issues with my foot, and the results of the test they then advised to return to my GP with that information, which ultimately got me the right diagnosis.

So, I guess in terms of the DigiCare app, these things would cost a fair amount of money if paid for privately.

Having used it I suppose the ease, the experience, the quickness of getting the results through and how easy that was to do made it a really simple process.

I’ll be looking to do the health check annually moving forward. I have just done the recent one and obviously I guess because of the medication I’m on it was pleasing to see the gout was within the normal range, so obviously the medication is doing its job.

Without the benefit of the DigiCare app and the results of the Health Check, I guess the problems with the foot would have continued, possibly even got worse, and I’m not really sure if I’d have got to this point today, whether I’d have had a result, an outcome, and it would have started to impact on being able to work.

It seems quite a small thing, but quite a life changing thing if you consider where it could have gone.

Transcript  for video Marlena's story

So my name’s Marlena, and I’m 25 years old, I am a Protection Adviser and I have been advising now for just over 5 years.

I speak to my clients every single day, why they need protection and why it’s so important and one day I just thought Marlena you need to take your own advice.

Because when you are fit and healthy you just never know if it’s going to stay that way or if something’s going to happen in the future.

Usually I’m quite bubbly, I’m really outgoing, I love socialising, going out with my friends. But I just started to feel more run down.

Um, so I did think actually this is not like me. So I turned to my Doctors and I told them the symptoms that I was feeling. So, one of the symptoms was, you know, migraines, nosebleeds, just feeling like you’ve got no energy whatsoever even though I’ve just woken up.

But they did kind of say, have you considered long Covid but I just felt within myself no, this is just not right how I’m feeling so I did turn to my Aviva policy for support.

So within my policy, I’ve got an amazing benefit called DigiCare+ which includes a lot of benefits such as annual health check, a private doctors appointment and also dietician sessions.

But I just thought to myself, actually the main one that I need is the annual health check, first, which is a really quick finger prick test, and then after that I’ve had a full report come back to me within days which showed me exactly what potentially could be wrong.

And I went on my app and really quickly I managed to get an appointment, which was a video appointment with a Doctor and they were able to explain to me what the results meant.

Probably one of the biggest concerns was my white blood cells, which we didn’t understand why they were so low. I felt it was really important to go and get that checked out.

So I’ve called my Doctors just to say that I did go privately to have a look at what was going on.

After I’ve explained my results roughly they actually said OK maybe you do need to be seen by a Doctor, which really did open a lot of doors because the next day I had a blood test and they’ve said we need to go and investigate it further.

Once they referred me to the hospital, they then diagnosed me with chronic fatigue syndrome.

And obviously I felt like that was actually one of my most stressful and anxious times.

I’m quite an anxious person as it is and then knowing that actually, you might not be OK was just another level of anxiety.

So within my DigiCare+ you do also have some counselling sessions included.

It was really nice just to speak to someone and again feel like you are being heard and they are listening to you.

I feel like without that DigiCare+ I would not be able to get to the bottom of my health.

With me having such a great experience with using DigiCare+,

it makes the conversation with my client a lot better because they can really see the value of the benefit.
