The BR2H-Score™ Model

A twelve-month behavioral risk score, written in claims, cadence, and continuous glucose.

BR2H-Score fuses 180-plus passive wearable, adjudicated claims, and EHR signals into a single per-member, twelve-month horizon stratification — validated against 2.4 million covered lives and audited annually by Milliman.

Series C, March 2024 · Trusted by 612 employers across all 50 states · Single-tenant HITRUST CSF v11

Chapter one · The model, as built

A single lake, three signal families, one horizon.

Why a behavioral risk score, in twelve months

The decision a benefits leader can actually act on is rarely "is this person sick now." It is "who in my population is on a trajectory toward a high-cost condition in the next budget cycle." BR2H-Score was designed for that question — a forward-looking, twelve-month horizon that surfaces the 4.7% of a workforce most likely to convert to a high-cost event before a diagnostic code is ever written. It is a population-health instrument, not a clinical diagnostic.

Three signal families, fused at inference

The model ingests, in a single HIPAA-compliant lake, three signal families that previously lived in three different systems: passive wearable streams (continuous glucose, HRV, step-cadence, sleep architecture), adjudicated medical and pharmacy claims, and structured EHR fields via FHIR R4. At inference these are not concatenated — they are fused through a Bayesian residual architecture that respects each stream's missingness pattern and time resolution, so a member who only consents to wearable sharing still receives a calibrated score.

Single-tenant by default, with sub-150ms inference on PHI

Every BR2H deployment is single-tenant. PHI never crosses tenant boundaries, model weights remain inside the customer's HITRUST CSF v11 boundary, and inference latency on protected data is benchmarked under 150 milliseconds. SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and HIPAA compliance are audited annually by Coalfire; uptime across 2023 production deployments was 99.982%, verified by independent monitoring.

Co-developed with Stanford, validated against 2.4M lives

The model was co-developed with the Stanford Prevention Research Center and has produced 47 peer-reviewed publications since 2021. It is validated across the full 2.4-million-member BR2H covered base, and its 30-day readmission prediction reaches 91.3% AUC — a figure that has been independently reproduced, not self-reported.

Chapter two · What the 180+ signals actually are

Four signal families, one pre-built FHIR connector layer.

"180+" reads as marketing until you see the families underneath. BR2H classifies every ingested feature into one of four families; each sits on top of a pre-built connector to the benefits, EHR, and device platforms your stack already runs.

01

Passive wearable biometrics

Continuous streams from Apple Watch, Fitbit, Garmin, Oura, Dexcom CGM, and Abbott Libre — HRV, resting heart rate, step cadence, sleep stage share, nocturnal heart-rate dip, and glucose time-in-range. Features are sampled per-stream to preserve their native time resolution before fusion.

  • Continuous glucose · HRV · step cadence
  • Sleep architecture · RHR drift over 14 days
  • Cadence-derived VO2max estimate

02

Adjudicated claims

Medical and pharmacy claims at the line-item level, including NDC, CPT, ICD-10, and allowed amount. Claims supply the chronicity baseline that wearables alone cannot see.

  • Pharmacy fill adherence
  • Specialty Rx escalations
  • ER and inpatient utilization

03

Structured EHR

FHIR R4 pulls of vitals, problem list, and select labs — ingested through pre-built connectors so a benefits team does not need an internal integration sprint to participate.

  • Blood pressure · A1c · lipid panel
  • Problem list chronicity
  • BMI · smoking status

04

Social-determinant enrichments

Zip-level SDoH indices, ADI, food access, and housing cost-burden overlays. These are enrichment features, never used as the sole basis for an individual-level decision.

  • Area Deprivation Index
  • Food & pharmacy access
  • Housing cost burden

05

38 pre-built FHIR connectors

Turnkey ingestion to Benefitfocus, Workday, ADP, Accolade, and 34 additional benefits, EHR, and device platforms. Average time-to-first-insight: nine days from contract signature, against an industry baseline of eleven weeks.

Built and maintained in-house; no third-party iPaaS required.

What differentiates BR2H from the predictive-analytics cohort is the discipline of fusion. Wearable streams and adjudicated claims are not stitched together in a slide deck — they are fused at inference inside a single HITRUST-certified boundary, with the missingness structure of each stream respected. That is the piece the field has been missing.
