The business case for health risk management/wellness has been well established.
- 10-15-20% of your population is driving 90-85-80% of your costs.
- Health behaviors account for 50%+ of your claims costs.
The Conventional Response
On-line tools BMI calculators - weight management lunch and learns - health risk assessments - health screenings - health fairs - nurse lines - disease management programs - health coaching - flu shots - incentives - “charging smokers more money”...
A lot of programs - A lot of ideas, - A lot of NOISE.
The bottom line is that conventional wellness programs are failing organizations.
Wellness programs have been part of the mainstream workplace prevention ideology for quite sometime. The marketing strategies may have changed, but the same programs, products, ideas, and tactics are being used...creating the same results.
Decision-makers have become disillusioned and are justifiably skeptical when it comes to wellness programs.
Scott’s 10 years of evolution, experience and expertise in health risk management tells us that the successful management of health risk within an organization is a long-term, business-driven process, not a collection of products, programs, and ideas.
The imperative need for CHANGE.
Scott believes there is a need for change; change in the methods used to develop health risk management/wellness strategy, change in the alignment of health risk management/wellness and the operations of a business, and change in the approaches that are used in effective mitigation, management and measurement of health risk/wellness within an organization.
In our commitment to our clients to serve as an advocate, coach, and advisor, we believe that we can help organizations to more effectively manage health risk within their organization.
S .H.A.R.P.™
Scott’s Health, Accountability and Results Process
S.H.A.R.P.™ isn’t a program or a product - it is a PROCESS. This process involves leadership vision, goal alignment, engagement strategies, resource evaluation, analysis and management, evaluation advocacy, and continuous improvement advisory. At the core of S.H.A.R.P.™ is the proprietary e5 Planning™ process. This process provides clients with a health risk management/wellness planning framework that is driven by accountability, performance, and best business practices. The end result is the creation of a customized, long-term, sustainable health risk management/wellness strategy that is integrated directly into the business. Clients are fully supported with tools and processes that allow them to establish a vision, clarify expectations, align goals, and develop strategies for engagement and measurement. As our clients' trusted advocate, advisor, and coach we are able to analyze, collect, and leverage carrier and wellness vendor resources, drive accountability, and advocate for evaluation and continuous improvement.
The bottom-line...a strategic, business-driven process that helps clients to improve their past health risk management/wellness performance.
And sure, sometimes starting off slow is the only business option. We embrace doing what is realistic, feasible and what matters most to an organization. Scott’s S.H.A.R.P.-T.W.O. Client-Led Resource Modules provide a structured, organized system that can be used to implement wellness-type programs. These modules incorporate best-practices, processes, and wellness resources into topics such as Weight Management, Health Fairs, Health Screenings, Gym Memberships, and the Tobacco-Free Workplace. All Modules are designed to provide a more strategic and purposeful direction related to the implementation of any type of organizational wellness program.
