Health Engineering Group

Health Engineering Group - pioneering optimal health & performance

Introduction - The healthcare industry is experiencing a paradigm shift, addressing prevention over the focus on disease. The wellness industry is alive and well generating $200+ billion a year and in the next 5 years will grow to $2 trillion a year. (Pilzer)  Until recently, the ?sickness model? has dominated the healthcare system. The "sickness model" will literally bankrupt our current healthcare system unless we help people maximize healthy aging and reduce their dependence on expensive drugs.  The U.S. ranks second from the bottom, out of 13 countries for 16 top health indicators.  According to the Journal of the American Medical Association, every year the U.S. medical system generates around 250,000 deaths caused by doctor prescribed therapies and drugs. This translates into the third leading cause of death in America.

HEG is positioning itself at the forefront of the wellness revolution by pioneering global medical solutions focusing on the most current state of the art wellness products, early-warning early-detection diagnostics, wellness therapies, nutritional & nutraceutical products, and a myriad of innovative services and programs geared to the global medical & fitness markets.

Sickness Model vs. Wellness Model In the reactive "sickness model? :

• individuals seek treatment after a disease has presented itself or developed, resulting in the highest cost of medicine in the world
• Companies spend a significant amount on crisis medicine for their employees, reducing overall productivity and driving  up their healthcare coverage cost to all-time highs
• Products and services are geared to treat symptoms, rather than focusing on the cure and/or the underlying cause of the disease, thereby contributing substantially to the 250,000 annual deaths in the U.S.
• Medicine is at least 20+ years behind scientific technology and research and is a late adopter to embracing change and innovation causing needless suffering

In the paradigm shift to the proactive "wellness model?:

• Individuals are involved and take accountability for their own preventative health care, thus reducing their overall healthcare cost and increasing their quality of life; HEG will bridge the information gap between science & medicine to practitioners world-wide, thereby enhancing global healthcare
• Companies are involved in their employees? preventative health and wellness care programs and through HEG/4HEALING will substantially reduce healthcare costs and improve treatment outcomes for their employees
• Products and services are provided to maintain a person's health, slow aging, actively prevent disease from developing, or to detect and treat disease in its early stages; HEG will market these products and services globally
• HEG is pioneering a business model, whereby domestic & global health practitioners will be trained in the most cutting edge medical sciences
