Company wellness programs are
shifting incentives for employees from simply signing up to rewards (or
punishments) for measurable results...
Here is the scoop:
1. Productivity saves you money! Companies are offering (25% of them) financial
rewards for producing positive blood work, good blood pressure
readings, and healthy BMI's to name a few. Qualifying is tougher, but the
rewards can be sweet. 20% of them are offering higher than $500 in monetary
incentives.
2. A for effort. Even if you miss goals, you can see cost savings for
enrolling. For those that fail to enroll/participate can see bigger hikes in
health premiums.
3. Change the game. If you think the benchmarks may be out of range for you,
you can set new ones with the help of your doctor. Take the new
adjustments to your benefits department and by law they have to work out an
alternative or give you a waiver.
4. Offsite reimbursements are
available. If you choose to go offsite, you may be able to get a substantial
reimbursement from your company. I have seen em' as high as $500! Just show
proof of payment to tap in.
