The March 1 issue of Managed Healthcare Executive features an article by Cyndy Nayer, CHVI president. Among her recommendations:
- Quantify the current risk to their organization in order to deploy focused incentives for behavior change and measure results;
- Measure emerging risks among those with chronic disease and create incentives to reduce or delay more critical and (financially catastrophic) phases of illness; and
- Design incentives to keep the healthy population at low risk.
She concludes by telling executives, “The bottom line is that a healthy employee is a competitive business advantage.”
