What is Vida Health?

Vida is a digital platform that offers personalized health programs and live, one-on-one support from an expert coach — all through an easy-to-use mobile app and website.

When you sign up with Vida, you’ll share your health goals and preferences. Vida will use that information to tailor a program to your needs and you’ll pick a coach to support you along the way. Your program will include helpful resources like videos, lessons, recipes, and more, plus easy progress-tracking. You’ll also be able to connect any fitness trackers or health devices you use.

Who is eligible for Vida health coaching through At Home?

All employees, spouses/dependents 18+ enrolled in the UMR medical plans 1 or 2 are eligible for health coaching at no charge.

What kind of health coaching can I receive through Vida?

At Vida, we handpick the best coaches and health experts from across the country. Whether you’re just starting your health journey, training for your next marathon, or somewhere in between, our coaches can help you reach your personal goals. Here are a few examples of things we can help with:

• Nutrition, including support for specialized diets (gluten-free, paleo, vegan, keto, and more)
• Getting fit: exercise and strength training
• Coping with stress
• Improving sleep
• Postpartum health and weight loss
• Managing diabetes, hypertension or other chronic conditions
• Tackling pre-diabetes or other risk factors, so they don’t lead to chronic disease
• Low Back Pain
• Building resilience and improving your outlook

Can I only participate if I have a chronic condition?

No. Whether you are looking to get (or stay) fit, lose weight, handle stress or anxiety, prevent disease, manage a chronic condition or meet another health goal, we have expert coaches available to help.

Can I choose my coach?

Absolutely. After you download the Vida Health app, you’ll be prompted to create an account and select your preferred program. Then we’ll ask you a few questions, including what kind of coaching style you’d like — for example a cheerleader type, drill sergeant, listener or something else. We’ll recommend some coaches that could be a good fit and then the choice is up to you.

Can I change coaches if it doesn’t work out with my first coach for some reason?

Absolutely. To request a change, go to the Home screen in your Vida app, tap the gear icon in the upper right, then tap Request New Coach. You’ll complete a brief survey so we can match you with a new coach that’s the best fit for your style and goals.

What happens to the information I provide to Vida?

All personal information that you share through Vida’s app is confidential and is securely stored in encrypted databases. Vida Health is fully HIPAA-compliant. If you wish to have your information deleted, please contact privacy@vida.com.

What type of information will At Home receive?

Vida will NOT share your individual participation, results, or any personally identifiable health information with Riverside Resort Hotel & Casino.

Can I connect other health and fitness apps/devices to my Vida account?

• Fitbit

How do I connect a 3rd-party app or device to my Vida account?

When you log into Vida for the first time, you’ll see a task on the Home screen that says Connect Devices & Apps. Tapping this will guide you through the device setup process. If you decide to add or change a connected device/app at a later time, follow these steps:

1. Make sure the device/app you’d like to connect is set up and that data tracking is working properly.
2. Log into the Vida app.
3. Go to the Home screen, tap the gear icon in the upper right, then tap Connect Devices & Apps.
4. Select the device/app you’d like to connect and follow the on-screen instructions.
5. Repeat these steps if you need to connect more devices or apps.

Why isn’t my device or app syncing to Vida?

First, please make sure your device is properly connected (see previous FAQ: “How do I connect a 3rd-party device or app to my Vida account?”). If you’ve checked this and are still having problems, please email us at support@vida.com.

Can I order a device through Vida?

Devices such as a digital scale, glucometer (as well as test supplies), or blood pressure cuff may be available to you for free after your first coach session, and if you meet Vida clinical criteria for a device.  The order form for devices will be found in the Vida app for those eligible.

I have my own glucometer.  Do I need to request a new one from Vida?

If you have your own glucometer, you can likely sync it with the Vida app if it has bluetooth connectivity.  If you are not able to sync your device, you can also manually enter your data into the Vida app if you prefer to continue using that device.

I have a CGM (continuous glucose monitor).  Can I sync data from my CGM to the Vida app?

Yes you can!  Check with your Vida Coach on steps to take to set up the CGM connection as it varies based on device.

I was asked for a credit card when signing up. Isn’t Vida provided to eligible  Riverside Resort Hotel & Casino employees at no charge?

Vida is indeed available at no charge to eligible  Riverside Resort Hotel & Casino employees. If you’re seeing a credit card request in error, email us at support@vida.com and we can help you get set up.
