Exploring the Health Coach Job Market<\/h2>\n

According to Marketdata Enterprises, Inc., 86% of the U.S.\u2019s $2.7 trillion dollar healthcare expenditure is attributed to people dealing with chronic and mental health conditions<\/strong>. The study goes on to say that Health Coaches<\/span> can play a role in cutting these costs by helping people make healthy lifestyle changes, replace unhealthy habits with healthy ones, and manage chronic conditions with diet and exercise.<\/p>\n

The number of practicing Health Coaches<\/span> in the U.S. grew at an annual rate of 8% between 2006 and 2017<\/strong>. Many of those coaches came from the healthcare field (think nurses\/MDs, chiropractors, massage therapists, nutritionists, psychologists, and social workers), deciding to expand their client reach by obtaining their Health Coach certification.<\/p>\n

The Health Coach Job Market in 2018<\/h2>\n

As of 2018, Marketdata estimates there to be 109,000 Health Coaches<\/span> and health educators combined in the U.S.<\/strong> The market was valued at $6.14 billion last year (a 15% increase since 2014) and is projected to grow at a rate of 5.4% over the next four years<\/strong>. By 2022, Marketdata predicts that the U.S. Health Coaching<\/span> market will be worth $7.85 billion, with more than 121,000 practicing coaches.<\/p>\n

Today, Health Coaches<\/span> are being hired by consumers, healthcare organizations, physician\u2019s offices, and wellness providers for the individualized care and support they can offer those wishing to improve their health and wellness.<\/p>\n

Even insurance companies are bringing in Health Coaches<\/span> to administer disease prevention programs to patients and at-risk communities. Marketdata shares that Health Coaches<\/span> are working with these groups primarily in the areas of smoking cessation and diabetes\/weight\/stress management.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re interested in working virtually, there\u2019s also tremendous opportunity. Marketdata found that most coaching is done by phone, but apps and online services are also emerging as desirable coaching channels.
