As health care spending sky rockets, the buzz of implementing wellness programs is becoming louder. Employers want to control health care spending, see higher productivity rates, and increase employee satisfaction while struggling to find the right program. I’ve heard their statements many times “We are still trying to figure it out,” and “people are not engaged.”
More and more companies are looking for new and better wellness programs and most of them are looking to a benefit broker for this. Wellness programs are one of the most important tools that a benefit broker uses to advise their client on health care benefits and controlling health care spending. A benefit broker should know their client’s specific wellness demographics when it comes to evaluating and offering them wellness strategies that deliver results.
Companies are relying on benefit brokers to recommend and even implement wellness programs and find the right vendor for them. There are many great and, frankly, some not so great wellness programs out there.
