Corporate Wellness Programs
A Personalized Approach to live Better
Employees are like family, and we link families
with health “solutions”
A new approach to “Health Insurance”
A corporation is a team, and
a team is as strong as its weakest member. The
company pays for sickcare, not healthcare. No
business can continue to succeed, if it cannot
utilize it workforce in an efficient manner. Health
Insurance companies are only now beginning to
appreciate that the years of encouraging bad behavior
can not be promulgated any more. Besides the fact
that the U.S. Healthcare system was set up as
a benefit to loyal employees, those administering
the program did not see their employees as worth
investing in, thus treating them only when they
and their families are ill. Being responsible
for the maintenance of our automobiles, or our
house, is not the responsibility of our car and
house insurance. Conversely, as employees we need
to be responsible for our health maintenance.
Insurance Companies are dealing now the problems
of weight loss and smoking. The cost of health
care for a family of four can reach greater than
3,000 per year, yet some studies have shown that
for every dollar spent for a wellness program,
three dollars can be saved.
Our staff of professionals at the Center for Functional
Medicine will educate, guide, listen, and support
those persons who wish to improve their individualized
health, by combining Diet programs, web and telephone
communication and home, travel, and work connections.
Assessing genomic, current, and proposed state
of health risks and benefits of lifestyles is
the core of the program. Behaviors, psychological,
and family relationships, will also be of serious
concern.
By educating the employees about their individual
health issues, a strategy can be promulgated to
attain better health and more productive team
members. The benefits to the corporation are
improved employee retention, and reduced absenteeism,
and injuries with better achievement of targeted
goals.
