The honor recognizes the Woebot Health Platform, which is built
on a foundation of clinically proven techniques and infused with
artificial intelligence (AI). The platform offers instantly
accessible, chat-based, adjunctive mental health support and the
tools and insights needed to enhance the care experience, automate
the collection of population insights and increase provider
efficiency. The award also recognizes Woebot, the digital companion
at the heart of the platform that delivers personalized,
in-the-moment support through chat-based conversations and
techniques. Woebot's conversations are written by conversational
writers using elements from evidence-based approaches like
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Interpersonal Psychotherapy
(IPT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), along with
collaboration from clinical experts.
“We’re thrilled and honored to once again receive an award from
MedTech Breakthrough,” said Woebot Health CEO Michael Evers. “We’re
seeing more real world evidence that shows how innovative digital
solutions can help payors and providers better understand and serve
member and patient populations, and become the foundation for even
greater advancements in the future.”
The mission of the MedTech Breakthrough Awards is to honor
excellence and recognize the innovation, hard work and success in a
range of health and medical technology categories, including
Telehealth, Clinical Administration, Patient Engagement, Electronic
Health Records (EHR), Virtual Care, Medical Devices, Medical Data
& Privacy, and many more. This year’s program attracted
thousands of nominations from over 18 different countries
throughout the world.
“Traditional mental health care is not always there when it’s
needed, and mental health issues are front and center in a global
conversation, especially with younger populations,” said Steve
Johansson, managing director, MedTech Breakthrough. “’Woebot Health
is addressing this challenge head on, standing as a mental health
ally that is engaging people in their breakthrough mental health
solutions at scale. We extend our sincere congratulations to the
