Challenge

Michigan State University search for a holistic tool for its athletic program

MSU’s sports nutrition program felt hindered by the patchwork solution used to support its athletes.

When Rob Masterson began his role in sports nutrition at Michigan State University’s athletic program, he encountered a cumbersome challenge. Managing athlete care involved juggling over a dozen disparate apps, outdated processes like using a 'secure word document,' and a lack of integration among tools. This fragmentation hindered efficient coordination and jeopardized athlete performance. Additionally, the university required a secure virtual connection for remote athlete engagement, vital for scalability across teams, departments, and campuses.

Solution

MSU leverages Healthie for a competitive edge

Healthie empowered MSU’s nutrition team to provide top quality, uninterrupted care for its dedicated athletes.

By consolidating tools into a single platform, Healthie propelled MSU ahead of competitors, offering a modern and efficient solution for sports nutrition management.
