Best Practices for Designing

an Effective Incentive Strategy

Engaging consumers in personal health management and wellness programs is a challenge many Employers and Health Plans face. Incentive strategies are at the forefront of their efforts to achieve maximum program participation, encourage lifelong healthy behaviors, and ultimately deliver the ROI wellness programs promise.

From trinkets and tee-shirts to premium credits and paid time off, 50 percent of large employers use incentives to encourage their workers to participate in health improvement activities. By 2009, this number is expected to leap to 74 percent.  

But offering an incentive alone doesn’t necessarily translate to results. To get results, an incentive strategy needs to be built on evidence-based best practices and aligned with leading personal health management programs.

During this webinar, you will:

Understand the importance of rewarding healthy behavior
Learn what key market trends are driving incentive program adoption
Review how HIPAA and taxation impact incentive strategy design
Discover how leading employers are designing and implementing incentive programs and what results they are achieving
Explore Best Practice for creating and implementing an incentive program that spans the entire health care continuum
