Employee Benefit News Webinar Series
Incentive programs for health plans and employers are just one part of a total approach to population engagement to drive healthy behavior change. Value-based benefit designs achieve optimal results only when they are combined with a comprehensive slate of multichannel interventions and communications that raise health awareness and support buy-in at all levels of the organization. The success of this approach in the long term also depends upon an infrastructure which readily supports the tracking, measurement, and reporting functions which will guide a targeted, adaptable strategy.
In this Webinar, Michael H. Samuelson, President and CEO discusses best practices for the implementation of a comprehensive health management strategy, supported by multi-channel communications and program options and the incentives of a value-based plan design. At the conclusion of this webinar, you will be able to:
- Recognize and target key data points for tracking program effectiveness and the importance of a streamlined data collection/reporting mechanism
- Understand the measurable correlation between employee health risk reduction, medical cost reductions, and productivity improvements
- Deploy incentives and multi-channel communications to drive population engagement
- Build the business case to achieve middle management buy-in to support population-wide participation and risk reduction
