  3. Why Wellness? • The City’s medical coverage is self-funded. • Employee medical coverage is one of the City’s TOP TEN annual expenses - $165 million in 2013. • The City sets the premium rates based on coverage and claims costs. Group health risks are considered when setting the premiums • Catching health risks early is an effective way to manage health care costs.

  4. Why Wellness? • Helping employees catch health risks early is the right thing to do. • For every $1 spent on wellness, $3 is eventually saved in claim expense. • Over 90% of large employers have a formal wellness program. More than 65% of all employers have one.

  5. Health Risk Assessments • A health risk assessment is one of the most widely used screening tools in the field of health promotion and is often the first step in multi-component health promotion programs. • When taken across a population, a health risk assessment can identify common risk factors like obesity, stress, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and help shape the direction of your wellness program.

  6. Health Risk Assessments • Scientific tool designed to measure all the important factors that are known to affect current health as well as the risk of future illness. • Identifies opportunities for lifestyle change to improve health and well being.

  7. The Value of an HRA • informing individuals of their health risks and behaviors that increase the risk of disease. • encouraging positive lifestyle change for the individual. • engaging employees in an organization's wellness initiative. • helping health professionals to identify high-risk individuals. • providing a snapshot of an organization's health status. • acting as leverage or a justification for the introduction of a wellness program. • producing comparative data that can be measured over time. • contributing to a meaningful analysis of productivity and return on investment (ROI).
