Harnessing the latest advances in medical science, AI and data to deliver better member outcomes.
Rapid advances in medical science are reshaping healthcare. As expectations rise, your clients will increasingly expect access to breakthrough, cutting-edge treatments and therapies that can offer the best possible member outcomes.
At Vitality, we are harnessing a powerful blend of data-driven insight, AI and extensive, wide-ranging clinical expertise to deliver excellent member outcomes and manage rising costs, from robotics to weight-management medication and cancer therapy.
Growing use of robotics in medical treatment
Increasingly, robotic technology is being used by surgeons to carry out procedures. It typically means that surgery is less invasive, allowing surgeons to make smaller incisions, reducing the risk of complications and helping patients recover more quickly.
Between 2021-2024, Vitality saw use of robotics in the healthcare procedures it covered increased by 73%.
The leading types of procedures using robotics were prostate surgeries and hip and knee replacements.

With demand for mental health support increasing, there is a need for insurers and healthcare providers to find new ways to meet these needs in a sustainable way, and deliver timely, personalised care.
Earlier this year, Vitality launched a new mental health journey, guiding members towards the most appropriate option for them – whether AI-powered online support – featuring over 200 evidence-based exercises and tools – or Talking Therapies.
Since its introduction, more than 1 in 4 members seeking mental health support have started their treatment through the self-guided option, enabling them to access immediate, on-demand support, while at the same time helping ensure Talking Therapies availability for members opting to see a therapist.
