BodySpec

Delivering minimal-effort preventative health screenings to the mass market

About BodySpec

BodySpec aims to be the go-to provider for preventative health by making it fast, easy, pleasant, and affordable. BodySpec does this by breaking high tech medical equipment and services out of the hospital and deploying it via a fleet of mobile van clinics directly to people at their gyms, offices, parks, and grocery stores.

BodySpec streamlines the entire experience enabling fast bookings in under a minute and a seamless no-wait experience at the mobile van clinic. The initial offering is an affordable 15-min DEXA body composition test that can quantify risks for heart disease, diabetes, osteoporosis, hypertension, and more.

By significantly reducing the frictions around accessing and receiving preventative health services, BodySpec aims to make it easy and pleasant to incorporate these screenings into regular health routines. The goal is to make accessing health services as fast and easy as a trip to Starbucks.

Problem statement

Everyone understands that preventative health screenings are important and effective - but less than 7% of Americans age 35+ received all the recommended appropriate clinical preventative services.

The problem is exacerbated for Millennials. It's not that Millennials don't care about their health; in fact, Millennials are the most avid consumers of wellness services and products. But, these are delivered as retail services and products, on retail terms consistent with their consumption habits - not with the frictions of traditional healthcare delivery like long wait times, surprise bills, and inconvenient scheduling. As such, Millennials are the most likely generation to put off health services, and may even be unhealthier than older generations when they were the same age.

In launching our first service, an elective DEXA body scan, BodySpec has found repeatedly that if you put it in front of their faces, Millennials will engage in the right preventative health behaviors - including screenings. There is a large market ($2B+) of untapped demand from Millennials for preventative health services - if delivered at the right time and place, and on their terms.
