In addition to reducing healthcare costs, comprehensive wellness programs can reduce absenteeism, increase productivity and improve employee retention.

Scottsdale, AZ (PRWEB) February 7, 2005

Healthcare costs for employers continue to rise at record rates. It is estimated that preventable illnesses account for 70% of all health related costs.

To contain these costs companies are turning to wellness programs. These comprehensive programs assess a company’s individual needs, implement programming to meet those needs and evaluate the results, in order to show a return on the investment. In addition to reducing healthcare costs these programs can reduce absenteeism, increase productivity and improve employee retention.

“Wellness programs are not just fitness programs, our network provides services for educational self care, nutrition, injury care and prevention and health seminars.” Says Terence Knealing CEO of Scottsdale based Envision Health & Wellness.

“We offer companies a proven system for creating and managing their wellness programs, all of our programs are customized and scalable, making them available solutions to both small and large companies” says Knealing

Once considered an optional benefit to have, corporate wellness programs are fast becoming a necessity for managing healthcare costs and securing a healthy bottom line.
