Nationwide to Introduce Kadance Precision Health Management Program

Kadance's program offers members access to genomics-based testing, medication optimization and personalized cancer support services to enhance policyholder value

COLUMBUS, Ohio, May 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Nationwide announced today that they are partnering with Kadance to offer Kadance's proactive, personalized genomics-based insights to life insurance customers through Kadance's Precision Health Management Program.

Kadance is a membership program that provides access to advanced DNA-based testing, precision medicine, and expert clinical support to enable proactive, personalized care. It empowers members to make more informed, confident, and actionable health decisions with their doctors based on their genetics.

"Offering our eligible life insurance customers the opportunity to purchase Kadance's program gives Nationwide a distinctive way to deliver extraordinary care to our policyholders during times they need it most," said Chuck Bremer, Vice President – Product of Nationwide's Life Insurance business.

The program is now available for purchase to eligible Nationwide members who own a life insurance policy purchased through a LIBRA Insurance Partners brokerage general agency (BGA).

"Our BGAs continually seek innovative solutions that provide significant value and create opportunities for client engagement," said Bill Shelow, President and CEO of LIBRA Insurance Partners. "Kadance's Precision Health Management Program enhances our offerings and positions our agencies as leaders in delivering next-generation health management solutions."

The Kadance program features:

• Proactive Health Management: DNA-based testing through two key day-one assessments—the Kadance Pharmacogenomic Test, paired with clinical pharmacist consultations to identify the most effective medications and the Kadance Hereditary Cancer Risk Test, which includes genetic counseling to review a personalized risk-reduction plan.
• Precision Cancer Care Management: One-on-one oncology nurse navigation, expert case reviews, comprehensive molecular cancer profiling and clinical trial matching for members diagnosed with cancer.
• Survivorship and Recovery: Continued oncology nurse navigation support, DNA-based recurrence monitoring and additional resources to support life beyond treatment.

Kadance can fill a gap for eligible customers who purchase the program by offering personalized health support and genomic insights outside the limits of traditional insurance coverage, giving each member's healthcare team the diagnostic resources needed to manage care with greater precision and effectiveness.

"Nationwide giving their customers the opportunity to purchase Kadance's program marks a meaningful shift in how life insurance can support individuals beyond financial protection," said Darren Rowe, Chief Executive Officer, Kadance, Inc. "Together, our organizations are aligning around a shared commitment to take care of members—not just at the point of claim, but throughout their health journey. By expanding access to precision medicine for those who purchase the program, especially services that are often unavailable or unaffordable through traditional health insurance, we're helping to close gaps in care and bring personalized support to more people when they need it most."
