Wellness Councils of America (WELCOA) estimates that 35-40% of total healthcare expenditures today are related to physical inactivity and obesity, with another 30% related to smoking. Additionally, less than one in four people get enough exercise to lower their risk of preventable disease.

How can this knowledge impact your plan’s costs?

Because healthier employees mean fewer injuries and illness-related absences, lower stress levels and fewer claims on your health insurance plan.

By providing effective wellness partnering services, InGroup can help you lower healthcare costs dramatically. In fact, after conducting more than 120 studies, the National Business Group on Health reports that within five years of starting a wellness program, health-care costs drop by an average $3.48 per dollar invested, with a corresponding $5.82 average reduction in absenteeism per dollar invested. How much your company saves depends on your employees’ overall wellness today, how strongly they and you embrace a commitment to healthy lifestyles, and the support you receive along the way. InGroup can, and will, give you that support.
