Issue
The client sought to enhance employee engagement in preventive care to improve health insights, enable proactive care management, and promote long-term cost savings. Between 2020 and 2023, their wellbeing program encouraged preventive exams and biometric screenings. Although engagement was moderate, the results were fragmented and provided limited actionable insights. The client needed a more efficient approach to increase participation and achieve stronger outcomes.
Solution
In 2023, the client streamlined its wellbeing program by removing biometric screenings and focusing on annual preventive exams. This made participation easier, lowered barriers, and motivated employees to complete a valuable health action.
Key strategies included:
- Focusing communication and incentives on preventive exams to boost participation and claims data.
- Identifying undiagnosed or unmanaged chronic conditions and addressing care gaps.
- Redirecting resources to chronic condition vendor programs and expanding behavioral health support.
Outcome
Between 2023 and 2025, the streamlined approach delivered measurable results:
- Participation in preventive exams rose from 66% to 85%.
- Eliminating biometric screenings saved $90,000 annually, allowing reinvestment into high-impact programs.
- Increased exam participation enhanced claims visibility, aiding early detection of chronic conditions and enabling more personalized care approaches.
- Cost-containment strategies enhanced with a deeper understanding of employee health trends.
