Today's health care costs are climbing on average 8.5% a year and businesses are finding it difficult, if not impossible, to cover the additional expense. Companies are actively seeking ways to manage this cost. There are three key areas that must be managed in order to successfully contain health care costs. These areas include engaging individuals in health improvement, ongoing measurable health improvement, and decreasing health care claims costs. One benefit of implementing the services offered through our wellness program is that your business will see on average 77% of the eligible population enrolled in the program. We engage individuals in many ways including face-to-face Orientation Sessions which explain the program in detail, one-on-one Personal Health Evaluations, and personal reports describing each individuals health risk profile. Another benefit of the wellness program is that we are able to measure ongoing health improvement using real claims data and clinic utilization data from the Electronic Medical Record. A third benefit of the wellness program is that we have the ability to show your company how much we have decreased your health care claims by. We are so conifdent in our ability to save you money that we offer a first year guarantee. These are just three of the many benefits received through the LivingWell Health Solutions wellness program.
