The Health & Wellness Institute takes an integrated approach to health management, from strategic consultation, screenings and assessments to prevention-focused programming and incentive management.

Assessment Tools

A targeted, comprehensive wellness strategy begins with an assessment of population health risks, medical care and productivity costs, available communication channels, and other factors. We deploy a suite of proprietary tools to gather and analyze these data at the individual and organizational level, in order to shape a wellness strategy that fits the unique health and business objectives of each client.

Online Wellness Portal

By connecting each user with resources and content that match their health risks and mindset, the Online Wellness Portal extends the reach of HWI's personalized approach to health management, providing support whenever or wherever it's most convenient for the individual. In addition to HWI's programs and tools, the Online Wellness Portal can also be customized to feature employer or health plan resources.

Screening Services

Biometric screenings build health risk awareness at the individual level, and complement HWI’s assessment tools and surveys with population data for vital health indicators. From the comprehensive resources of the Wellness Clinic to individual screening events, HWI delivers high quality service and personalized health guidance to the worksite and to the communities our health plan clients serve.

Healthy Lifestyle Programs

HWI delivers high-touch health education and behavior change programming to help individuals address controllable lifestyle behaviors related to smoking, nutrition, exercise, and stress management, preventing health risks from becoming costly health problems. We engage participants through multiple channels – onsite, online, video, telephonic, and print – with the resources and guidance they need to achieve positive change.

Consulting Support

From the implementation of worksite wellness programs to the development of health management product strategies, HWI’s consultants enable employers and health plans to achieve their business objectives, including medical cost reduction, improved workplace performance, and member/employee retention.

Incentive Management

Participation at the employee or member level is vital to the success of any wellness initiative. HWI’s proprietary H.I.T.S. – Health Incentive Tracking System™ integrates participation data from multiple programs or vendors, tracks member compliance, provides streamlined reporting to the sponsor, and generates data feeds to incentive fulfillment vendors.
