| “Our collaboration with LifeMasters has been a very positive one. Every step of the way that, it has been a true collaboration and all to the betterment of our members, and the LifeMasters program has really given us a positive competitive edge on numerous occasions.”

| “When we signed our first contract with LifeMasters we were relative novices with having a partnership with a company like LifeMasters. Having LifeMasters come on board as a partner has created a framework for us to operate relative to our various programs. They fill the immediate gap—that the providers didn't have a way of monitoring their patients in between visits.
Once that was set up, we started to see as a health plan a more 3-dimensional view of what was going on with that population. And then it allowed us to make our own adjustments, create things we hadn't thought about before to what we think is a national best practice diabetes program. I don't think we would have been able to get to that point if we hadn't started with the LifeMasters program.”
