Wellness Fairs
Onsite wellness fairs are an opportunity for our wellness team to increase member participation by promoting all the great features of our wellness program. We engage with members by performing blood pressure checks and enrolling members in our specialized wellness programs. Wellness fairs are part of our wellness program initiatives to promote positive behavior change in a fun environment with raffle prizes, trivia questions, and healthy snacks.
Express Health Kiosk
Our Express Health Kiosk station is FDA-approved technology installed within the workplace to add convenience in checking biometric measurements like heart rate, blood pressure, and body mass index (BMI). We believe regular blood pressure checks are an important component of wellness. Early detection of high blood pressure is important to prevent heart attack, stroke, and other health threats.
Wellness Coordinator
All health and wellness partnerships have an assigned wellness coordinator/health coach who coordinates wellness programs and increases member engagement through member outreach and effective communication strategies.
Newsletters
We truly have a passion for health promotion and education. Our monthly newsletters are electronically emailed and provide health awareness, health tips, and an opportunity to promote our specialized wellness programs to increase engagement.
Preventative Health Screenings
Preventative health screenings are conducted through health risk assessments, biometric data, and preventative lab screenings. Detecting early diseases like hypertension, high cholesterol, or diabetes allows our clinical team to engage with at-risk members and generate a care plan with the member to prevent the progression of chronic diseases that often lead to heart attack or stroke if left untreated. Members who are at risk have the opportunity to enroll in one of our specialized wellness programs.
Wellness Portal
Our HIPPA-compliant wellness portal offers our members dynamic health risk assessments, individual health summary reports, wellness challenges that integrate with wearable technology, valuable educational health resources, digital health coaches, and so much more!
