Understand the benefits of Wellness Programs
BIO:
Randy Philip is a principal consultant at the Washington Insurance Consulting Group.
TRANSCRIPT:
I’m Randy Philip, Principal Consultant with the Washington Insurance Consulting Group located in Alexandria, Virginia. I and my partners have over 70 years of combined experience working with small employers and medium employers, working employee benefits.
Today we’re going to be talking about wellness programs, and are they more than just a perk? What are wellness programs? Wellness programs encompass a number of things—a number of things to engage your employees, a number of things to make the employees feel that the employer is interested in them. Examples of that might be gym memberships, or where some employers might even have gyms inside the organization. A lunchtime workout—where the employer would bring in someone who could do yoga, someone who might do aerobics. Other examples are heart monitors—where an employer might motivate the employee or stimulate the employee by engaging them to wear a heart monitor or wear a pedometer so that their activities can be tracked.
Another part of the wellness package is where employers do health screenings. An employer might bring in a nurse or a nurse practitioner to come in to do cholesterol checking, to do high blood pressure checking, to check for diabetes, to do flu shots. What employers realize is that the more they engage their employees and their families and the more they can get ahead of some of those medical concerns—diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol—and get ahead of that ball, the better off it is for the employee and the employer.
Another benefit to wellness programs are to motivate employees to stop smoking. That could be where they bring in smoking coaches or where they actually even pass out the smoking nicotine patch.
Some advantages of wellness programs: It reduces the employees being absent from work. The other thing about this engagement of employees—this allows the employer to recognize employees for things other than work. It’s great to say, “Hey John, you’re doing a good job at your job,” but it’s also a wonderful to be able to tell John, “You’re doing a great job at representing your team in being active and doing the things that you can do for yourself and for your team to be active.”
For every dollar that an employer invests in a wellness program, it reduces the overall health care cost by $3.27. So there are some direct correlations; not immediately, but over the long period, there are some direct correlations to when employer invests a dollar, the payback in the overall cost—not just the premium that the employer is paying for health insurance, but just the overall employee cost.
The other benefit is that it increases the workers’ morale—employees that feel that the employer is invested in them as an employee.
This has been Randy Philip, Principal Consultant with the Washington Insurance Consulting Group located in Alexandria, Virginia for business.com. Please remember the following points.

Overweight and obese patients frequently feel stigmatized in health care settings, and face stereotypes and prejudice from health care providers.
These stigmatizing experiences (also called ‘weight bias’) jeopardize patients’ emotional and physical health. The Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity at Yale University (http://ruddcenter.yale.org) has released this new video in response to a growing concern about weight bias in health care. The video, hosted by celebrity and activist Emme and featuring Rudd Center experts including Dr. Rebecca Puhl and Dr. Kelly Brownell, uses expert commentary and dramatic representation to increase awareness of bias and stigma that overweight and obese patients encounter in health care. Equally importantly, the video presents a range of practical strategies to help providers reduce bias in their clinical practice, and to optimize the health care experience for their overweight and obese patients.

Dr. Len Horowitz is an internationally known authority in behavioral science, public health education, and health practice management. He received his doctorate from Tufts University, was awarded a fellowship to do behavioral research at the University of Rochester, and later earned a Master of Public Health degree in behavioral science from Harvard University and a Masters degree in health education from Beacon College.
One of healthcare’s most captivating motivational speakers, Len has served on the faculties of Tufts University, Harvard University, and Leslie College’s Institute for the Arts and Human Development, directed a multidisciplinary health center for over a decade, and currently serves as President of Tetrahedron, Inc., a nonprofit health educational corporation.
Dr. Len Horowitz commented on a TB patient who’s been jailed because he didn’t wear a mask. The authorities who imprisoned the man are the ones who are negligent, as they are depriving him of natural cures such as sunlight and oxygenation, he said. Dr. Horowitz was also critical of a proposed anthrax vaccine– “it’s not science,” but a political and financial agenda, he declared.
