How Wellness Programs Manage and Measure Risk

It is often "soft" dollars, or the costs that are difficult to measure, that impact a company's bottom line.

An effective wellness program contains tools to collect data and measure results, which will identify those "soft" dollars. When the total Corporate Risk Burden (CRB) is managed, companies have more control over healthcare costs.

The Starr Group partners with US HealthCenter to offer StarrWellness. Our program includes the tools to help measure and manage total Corporate Risk Burden (CRB).

Pre-disease Risk + Lifestyle Risk + Productivity = CRB

StarrWellness offers health risk assessments and bio-metric screenings that help identify pre-disease risks for conditions such as lung cancer, coronary heart disease, back problems, hypertension, stroke, depression and diabetes.

 

They also identify certain lifestyle risks including accidents and injuries, nutritional habits, sedentary lifestyle, stress and anxiety and alcohol and tobacco use.

Productivity includes both absenteeism and presenteeism. Added together, these factors affect a company's bottom line.

StarrWellness measures these risks and tailors a Wellness program to address the greatest needs. Some companies may focus on smoking cessation while others target stress management and exercise.
