Question 1

Is there really no cost to join the program? How?

Accepted Answer

This is a new program which we're piloting before launching with health plans. In return for free access to the Hinge Health program, including a dedicated physical therapist and health coach we ask that you provide feedback on the program to help us improve it for others.

Question 2

Who is eligible to join? What do I have to do to join?

Accepted Answer

This program is designed for adults over the age of 55 who are concerned about their balance, or have recently fallen in the past year.

We’ll ask you to fill out a questionnaire (it takes about 10 minutes). We use your information to create your account and make sure the Balance Program is a good fit for you. We may determine you’re not able to join if your questionnaire is incomplete, or if you are restricted from or need physical support to exercise.

Question 3

What’s expected of me if I join?

Accepted Answer

We ask you to commit to 15 minutes of exercise at least 3 times a week. For best results, we recommend doing the exercises daily. No matter how many times a week you choose to exercise, we’ll do everything we can to help you stick to your program.

Question 4

What do I need for my exercise sessions?

Accepted Answer

You’ll need the Hinge Health app and a comfortable place to exercise (don’t worry if it’s not the ideal space. It only needs to be practical). For some exercises you may need to use a chair or lean against a wall for support. When you open the app to begin your exercise session, we’ll let you know what equipment you’ll need.

Question 5

What are the expectations for this pilot program?

Accepted Answer

We ask that you complete at least 3 sessions per week, the core program will last for 10 weeks but you'll have access to your PT and health coach for 6 months, we ask that you take part in occasional surveys and optional interviews to provide your feedback on the program and help us improve. You may withdraw from the pilot at any point.

Question 6

How can I improve my balance?

Accepted Answer
