Workplace Wellness Programs Can Cut Chronic Illness Costs; Savings for Lifestyle Improvements Are Smaller
RAND Corporation Jan. 6, 2014
"The current RAND study provides an assessment of over seven years of PepsiCo's Healthy Living wellness program.... [T]he disease management program reduced costs among participants by $136 per member per month, or $1,632 annually, driven by a 29 percent drop in hospital admissions. Among people who participated in both the disease management and lifestyle management programs, the savings were $160 per month with a 66 percent drop in hospital admissions. People who participated in the lifestyle management program reported a small reduction in absenteeism, but there was no significant effect on health care costs."
