At YourCoach.Health, we understand that shaping the future of health coaching isn’t just about predictions (which we have done in the years past) — it’s about the steps we take today to ensure meaningful impact tomorrow. As leaders in this space, we are committed to advancing health coaching as a transformative force for individuals, families, and communities. Here’s how we’re turning past predictions into commitment, into action:
Advancing the Science of Health Coaching
Despite the industry’s growth, the concept and true value of health coaching is still misunderstood by many. A REAL health coach is a trusted partner and guide who uses science-backed methodologies to help individuals achieve sustainable behavior change. At YourCoach.Health, we’ve made it our mission to clarify and emphasize this role and showcase the measurable outcomes REAL health coaching delivers. Through observational data collected across our validated network of practicing coaches, we are committed to demonstrating the tangible benefits of health coaching. From chronic disease management to improved mental health, the evidence is clear: REAL health coaching works. Our focus in 2025 is on amplifying this message through white papers, research publications, and collaborations with our partners to strengthen the evidence base and educate stakeholders about the unique value of health coaching.
AI In The World of Health Coaching: Humans First, Technology as a Tool
AI is no longer a future possibility—it’s a big part of our present. At YourCoach.Health, however, we firmly believe in the irreplaceable value of human connection. Health coaching is deeply personal, relying on empathy, trust, and lived experiences. While AI can never replicate that, it can be a powerful tool to enhance outcomes. We’re committed to using AI responsibly. Our proprietary platform already integrates AI-driven insights, helping coaches provide more personalized care, track progress in real-time, and anticipate client needs. However, the cornerstone of our approach is the human-in-the-loop model: AI supports, but humans lead. In 2025, we will continue working to ensure that technology amplifies the role of our highly skilled coaches to help them be more efficient, prioritizing safety and security of our end consumers.
Bringing Family and Community Health Back into Focus
As health coaching evolves, we are highlighting our emphasis on family and community wellness. Health equity has always been a priority for us, and we recognize that sustainable health outcomes often stem from collective, community-based efforts. Our recent recognition as winners of the Panasonic WELL Innovation Challenge has provided an incredible platform to expand our work in family wellness. Moving forward, we will launch initiatives that engage entire households in the pursuit of better health, addressing systemic barriers to care and promoting health equity. From supporting caregivers to fostering multi-generational wellness plans, our approach is designed to drive meaningful change within families and communities. With the loneliness epidemic continuing to surge, there is no better time than now to use the power of health coaching to bring individuals, families and communities together.
Addressing the Healthcare Gap Through Medicare (CMS)
The strain on the U.S. healthcare system is undeniable. With a growing demand for services and a shortage of clinicians, the need for non-clinical support is at an all-time high. Health coaches are not here to replace doctors, but are uniquely positioned to fill critical gaps in care. We were happy to see ongoing support within the PFS (Physician Fee Schedule) by CMS (Centers for Medicaid and Medicare) for 2025 for a continuation of a pilot program that demonstrates the value of reimbursable health coaching. This underscores our belief that REAL health coaches are an essential part of the broader healthcare ecosystem, offering preventative and complementary support that benefits patients, providers, and payers alike.
Lifestyle Intervention as a Service (LIaaS): A Sustainable Solution
The unsustainable costs of treatments like GLP-1 drugs highlight the urgent need for preventative care models. Health coaching provides exactly that. By empowering individuals to adopt lifestyle changes—whether it’s improving nutrition, prioritizing sleep, or engaging in regular physical activity—health coaches deliver outcomes that reduce reliance on costly interventions. In 2025 and beyond, we are committed to making lifestyle intervention a scalable service for employers, insurers, and healthcare providers. Our programs are designed to be integrated into step-care models, supporting members and employees at every stage of their health journey. By focusing on behavior change and holistic wellness, we aim to reduce healthcare costs while improving individuals’ quality of life.
Our Vision for the Future
These five commitments for 2025 reflect more than just goals—they are the foundation of how we operate as a company and as leaders in the health coaching industry. At YourCoach Health, we believe in the power of science, technology, and community to create lasting change led by humans. By advancing these priorities, we are ensuring that REAL health coaching is not only a tool for today but a transformative force for the future. Together, we can redefine what it means to live well.
