In rapid, lasting ways employers can control rising health costs without shifting more costs to all employees or taking away benefits. These tactics can also lower absenteeism, improve performance and other results.
It requires using effective approaches to population health and wellness that include the right mix of over 10 critical components.
Short and long term results (success) vary widely based on the mix, sequence and timing of what’s done each year, how it’s done and integrated with other components. From the start, one group has seen paid claims per employee year run an average of 11% lower than those in 2006 AND received a lower stop loss rate going into 2012.
This 90-minute webinar will cover:
• Screenings, HRAs and other early detection components
• Trainings that get immediate and long term results
• Support options for smokers, weight loss, high blood pressure and other risks
• Health coaching, care counseling and disease management options
• Web portals, e-learning and online decision tools
• Fitness and other short term challenge programs
• Flu shots and other preventive care – at worksites and elsewhere
• Roles of communications, incentives and plan design
• Ranking the above components by impacts, outcomes and recommended timing (sequence)
Bob Gorsky, PhD will share details and practical tips for any employer, union or other group whether self-funded or fully insured – actions and results that can transcend any changes in ACA.
