PATH Type® Assessment & Prediction

Revealing the Unconscious Patterns Driving Behavior and Health Risk

Our reaction to health issues can be a bigger driver of health costs than the conditions themselves. What drives these reactions? Unconscious patterns! The fact is our reaction to health issues is shaped by unconscious patterns that affect us everyday. When we look at people based on their unconscious patterns, we see that the patterns alone account for a spread in national health care spending of over $225 billion dollars a year. The unconscious patterns within a person impact health, health risk and disease. The lack of recognition of these unconscious patterns is a major weakness in today's approaches to predicting health, improving health, demand and costs. PATH Type® research eliminates this weakness by revealing how much our health and demand is shaped by unconscious cognitive patterns.

PATH Type® Assessment. The PATH Type® assessment reveals the unconscious pattern within any individual. Surprizingly, the PATH Type® assessment is one of the easiest assessments around. The PATH Type® Questionnaire only has twenty questions and can be answered in four minutes. That's it.

No health questions, no questions about disease, no family history! The PATH Type Assessment doesn't need the disclosure of age, gender, height, weight, or blood pressure. It only requires honest responses to twenty statements. The PATH Type® Diagnostic Analysis will reveal the unconscious patterns behind the answers.

Health Prediction. The PATH type of a person describes unconscious thinking patterns around self, family, and the health care delivery environment. These unconscious patterns are a powerful predictor of many critical health care issues. PATH Types reveal consistent variability in disease and health risk. They are predictive of many health care demand issues including use of emergency rooms, hospitals, specialists and prescription medications. They also pull along consistent demographic, socioeconomic and life-stage patterns and predict dramatic differences in the level of health care spending for dependents (children).

PATH Type, Dependence on, or Freedom from the Health Care System. PATH Type results include predictive indices for health status, disease states, health risk factors, specialty demand, emergency room use, hospitalizations, Rx claims, medical claims, and dependent claims. These indices are clear indicators of freedom from or dependence on the health care system.

Because the PATH Type® Questionnaire does not ask for any protected health information, it is not subject to HIPPA restrictions.
