Background
This project was targeted to help employers understand the importance of accounting for the total cost of employee health. MBGH partnered with Harvard Medical School, Georgia Health Care Leadership Council, and the Institute for Health and Productivity Management (IHPM) in a three-year Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) research project.
Outcomes
Each participating employer received individual survey results that quantified the effects of health problems on lost productivity and consultation on how to prioritize and evaluate interventions, policies, and benefit plan designs.
