Employee Wellness Program
An individual’s daily health
routines are the best
determinant of both overall
health and a feeling of
wellbeing.
A strong employee wellness
program is no longer a luxury,
but a strategic imperative.
It can be the first step to encouraging better health and
creating meaningful, positive change in the lives of
employees and their families.

Wellness is more than exercising and eating right.
A 2010 Harvard Business Review study defined it as:
Wellness Programs
An organized, employer-sponsored program
that is designed to support employees (and,
sometimes, their families) as they adopt and
sustain behaviors that reduce health risks,
improve quality of life, enhance personal
effectiveness, and benefit the organization’s
bottom line.

Health Catalyst has created a
wellness program, Get Fit, Stay Fit
that strives to meet those criteria.
The program, developed for team
members by team members, uses
gaming principles and behavioral
science.
Teamwork, competition, rewards,
and fun motivates team members to
embrace healthy behaviors and
maintain them over time.
Results to date have been profound.

The focus companies are putting
in to plan design today is a prime
indicator of the evolution of the
healthcare system.
It’s no surprise that utilization is
increasing and healthcare costs
have skyrocketed.
New plans and programs, such
as high-deductible health plans
(HDHP) tied to a health savings
account (HSA), were designed to
empower consumers to take
responsibility for their health.

To truly see the value of high-deductible
plans tied to an HSA, adoption of these
plans as a percentage of total plans
offered should be high, certainly greater
than 80%, and ideally closer to 90-100%.
The Health Catalyst HSA plan went
from 50% adoption rate in 2013 to
today’s HAS, as well as traditional
insurance programs where the rate
exceeds 90%.

With the right plan design and
basic economic incentives in place,
employers can begin to add
population health management
(PHM) tools and programs.
PHM enables an employer to more
effectively manage wellness and
healthcare spending among
employees and remain HIPAA-
compliant.

Today, efforts are underway among
payers to utilize data and analytics
to define, create, and refine
healthcare insurance plan design.
Over time, employers may be able
to conduct predictive modeling for
employee populations to plan for
the future with greater confidence.

Two challenges are inhibiting PHM
from becoming commonplace.
1. Employer access to private
employee health data raises serious
concerns regarding patient privacy.
2. Most employers don’t have access
to payer data and if they do, they
are lacking the tools to perform a
proper analysis.

With an effective healthcare
insurance plan design, wellness
programs to encourage greater
accountability, and an analytics
infrastructure that delivers insight,
organizations can feel confident
to take on additional risk and
implement self-funded benefits.

Health Catalyst committed to
become self-funded in 2014.
Self-funding affords team
members the opportunity to
impact, and directly share in,
the benefits of responsible
population management
(including lower premiums or
premium-free months).

Demonstrating to team members
the direct link between company
performance and the cost of
healthcare is essential for a
successful self-funding model.
It provides team members with
an even greater sense of
ownership in the company and a
better understanding of the
impact of their healthcare
decisions on the bottom line.

Personal Accountability Meets
Corporate Responsibility
A sustained culture of collective
responsibility provides tangible
benefits to both the company and
team members.
The company is rewarded as the
team member population
collectively manages care costs.
Cost savings, which can grow over
time through sustained steward-
ship, can lead to a number of
rewards for team members.
