Healthcare
Conclusion: Business as usual
would compromise viability
3
Several causes were driving escalating
healthcare costs
• Plan design lacked incentives to encourage healthy
behavior
• Providers of healthcare are less involved and not
incented to encourage healthy actions
• Employee’s contributions and out-of-pocket costs did
not reward their health improvement efforts
• Cost and quality information was largely absent, so
employees could not easily shop for care
4
Our solution was a holistic program,
focused on health and fitness
• Encourage employees to think of all healthcare
spending as their money
• Motivate employees to help them make healthier
choices and actions
• Drive wellness and disease program utilization
• Support employees with education and environmental
reinforcement
5
We made improving employee health a core
business strategy – with dramatic results
