For Clinicians

Deliver deeper insights in less time

Your time is valuable, and distilling your patient's information into actionable insights based on their 10 to 15 year health outlook is key. Our system gives you a data-driven long-term view of patient health—helping you elevate care and patient understanding.

Our advanced data science approach helps patients grasp where they are today in relation to their long-term health, why it matters, and how recommended actions can help them improve. So clinicians can focus on behavior modification to strengthen long-term health.

the challenge

From data chaos to clarity

Patients are generating more data than ever — but turning these data into insight takes considerable time and complex analysis

The Problem

The Solution

Patients struggle to connect insight to action

Without simplified and trackable metrics, behavior modification is a challenge.

Too much data, not enough clarity

Today you interpret patient lab tests, physical measures, vitals, health history, family health history, wearable data, and other test results — but lack concise interpretation.

Time constraints limit depth

Even with extended visits, synthesizing complex data are inefficient.

Reference ranges don't tell the full story

"Normal" doesn't always mean optimal, especially across all health domains.

Holistic health intelligence

VOLO™ Scores use predictive models to translate complex, multi-source data into an easy-to-understand view of your patients' long-term health across key health domains.

Clearer conversations

Give clinicians and patients a shared, easy-to-understand framework for discussing long-term health risks, priorities, and next steps.

More targeted approach

Identify which health domains may need attention, helping care teams focus recommendations where they can create the greatest long-term health impact.

Measurable progress over time

Track how scores and health domains evolve, making it easier to monitor improvement and adjust long-term health strategies over time.

The Science

A holistic, data science-driven long-term health calculator

What if we could provide predictive models that synthesize complex health data from multiple sources into clear, easy to understand scores and insights — empowering clinicians to efficiently communicate the tradeoffs of potential lifestyle decisions?

The data science behind VOLO™ Scores results in a robust health calculator, providing a comprehensive view for clinicians to evaluate and ultimately guide recommended interventions to improve patients’ long-term health.

Holistic

Unlike most health scores, VOLO™ Scores take a holistic view of multiple health domains in one view. The healthspan overview is the 10-15 year roadmap for clinicians to assess each health domain, permitting efficient focus, drill downs, and comparison to prior dates.

Specific

Standard lab ranges tell clinicians what's normal, typically regardless of age and sex. VOLO™ Modeled Ranges use advanced modeling to determine age and sex-adjusted healthy ranges for each biomarker value across key health domains - along with its impact on VOLO™ Scores, giving clinicians a clearer picture of what biomarker values are influencing long-term health.

Population-scale data

Our benchmarks are grounded in real-world health patterns produced by our advanced predictive models that have been trained on large, diverse population datasets — including healthy and unhealthy individuals.

Trained on billions of data points

When you recognize a pattern in a patient's data, you're drawing on every case you've seen before. Our machine learning system does the same — except it has been trained on the relationships between billions of data points across enormous, diverse populations.

VOLO™ Scores translate this into a single, intuitive view of each patient's long-term health trajectory — distilling billions of data relationships into clear and meaningful metrics you need to make every conversation more informed and every lifesteyle decision more precisely timed.

"Instead of giving an output based on a fixed set of rules [heuristic model], our models are trained on relationships from large numbers of real-world examples."

Built for real-world medicine

VOLO™ Scores were developed through collaboration and consultation with physicians, longevity practitioners, and researchers across medical and wellness communities, ensuring the approach reflects evidence-based research — not just the philosophy of a few individuals.

This has the potential to significantly reduce the cognitive and time burden involved in compiling large amounts of patient biomarker and physiology data, allowing physicians to spend more time focused on long-term outlooks, patient strategy, and individualized care.

Dr. Kevin Taylor, MD

While routine lab work just gives you a list of numbers, VOLO™ Health can give a clear data-driven precise story about your long-term health. VOLO™ Scores are a new clinical language. They turn raw data into predictive intelligence empowering both patients and clinicians to have a sharper tool for preventing disease, not just treating it after the fact.

Dr. Yousif A-Rahim, Gastroenterologist

Being measured against people like me – same age, gender and health profile (not just standard lab ranges) – really resonated. My scores showed I was 4.5 times more likely than others like me to experience metabolic health issues (Type 2 diabetes). That was a real wake-up call. The VOLO Scores made me focus on lowering my A1c. I knew exactly what to work on, and I lowered my long-term risk from 4.5 times higher than average to below average in 6 months.

Kirsten Feldman, VOLO Health Client

The data science team behind the VOLO™ Score are extremely talented data scientists who have been working for 25 years, some of them, using data science in healthcare.

Dr. Randy Axelrod, VOLO Health Chief Medical Officer

Volo Health gives physicians like myself the ability to move beyond just simply identifying long-term risk factors and instead show patients a more complete picture of how their biomarkers may influence long-term health and longevity. It helps turn complex data into meaningful, personalized insight and I believe that’s one of the missing links in modern preventive medicine. Before, if I say to my patients you should really exercise…they say, okay… “why”? So now thanks to VOLO Health I have a way to say this is “why”, and if you do this, then these are the parameters that can change to lower your future health risk and increase your longevity.

Dr. Lorne Stitsky, Board Certified American Osteopathic Family Physician

For someone who's diabetic or pre-diabetic — the age comparison by organ system makes sense. Understanding the impact of LDL and other biomarkers and how they are impacting age scores is very impactful.

Frequently asked questions

Individual lab values are typically evaluated against population reference ranges — flagging what is abnormal but offering little insight into how those values interact with other biomarker values, and what they mean for the patient's long-term health trajectory. The VOLO™ Score changes this by analyzing multiple biomarkers simultaneously across health domains, accounting for the patient's age and sex, and surfacing the combinations that are quietly driving long-term risk. A biomarker that appears perfectly normal in isolation can still contribute meaningfully to elevated long-term risk as determined by our algorithms' ability to interpret biomarker relationships. VOLO Scores make those patterns visible, giving the physician a level of insight that a standard lab review simply cannot provide

VOLO ™ Scores are generated based on a patient's bloodwork, vital signs, and biometric data. Because biomarkers change over time — in response to lifestyle choices, medication, and aging among others, — regular updates are essential to tracking progress and adjusting health and wellness recommendations on long-term health.

Every 3 to 6 months is the recommended cadence for most patients to actively track changes in their long-term health outlook provided through VOLO Scores. For highly motivated patients tracking specific lifestyle decisions, more frequent draws may be appropriate. Vital signs and physical measures should always be recorded on the same day as the blood draw for maximum accuracy

VOLO™ Scores can be calculated with limited blood biomarkers due to our ability to impute missing biomarkers based on large population data, however the more biomarkers we can input for scoring, the better.

VOLO™ Scores do the heavy lifting before the patient walks in the door. Rather than spending the visit synthesizing raw lab values one by one, you can arrive with a clear visual snapshot of the patient's long-term health across multiple health domains, with the highest-priority health domains and biomarker relationships already identified. This shifts the conversation from data explanation to behavior modification — which is where clinicians tell us they desire to spend the most time with their patients.

Biomarker strength indicates how strongly a biomarker is correlated to a particular health domain, based on Volo Health's models. These values range from 1 (weakest) to 10 (strongest), reflecting how strong the correlation is between the biomarker and the health domain score.

This allows physicians to see at a glance which biomarkers contribute most to each domain — and where to focus their attention first. The VOLO™ Score details will also provide personalized views for each patient, showing which biomarkers are negatively and positively influencing their VOLO Scores the most.

Genetic data is not yet fully integrated into the standard VOLO™ Score, but it is actively in development and represents the next significant evolution of the platform.

No. The VOLO™ Score is not a diagnostic tool and does not replace clinical diagnosis of the patient's current health status, rather it provides the ability to see long-term health outlooks . This permits clinicians and their patients to implement informed lifestyle decisions early to improve long-term health. Early implementation of lifestyle choices are key to improving long-term health, before it is too late.
