Fitness and wellness options have been available for years, as has disease management.  An incentive medical plan was all that was missing. The new HealthyPeople HRA plan was rolled out in January 08 to link it all together.  With the use of incentives and data management, employees and their dependents have a fully integrated health management environment.  Building a Culture of Health——Value-based plan delivers: Net savings of $5.1 million for CareConnect in 2005; 95% of employees who needed disease management participated.  Download the entire Johnson & Johnson 2008 Case Study here.
