An innovative pricing structure that for employers reduces the burden of providing a wellness initiative for employees--while creating the necessary sense of "buy-in" for the employee to be engaged in the initiative offered. This initiative is equally effective as a stand-alone program or as a jump-start for existing, under-performing wellness programs.

Imagine . . .
. . . A participant-funded, team-building, morale-boosting strategy to improve the health status of your employees . . . . . . All while creating the buy-in necessary for those employees to be fully engaged in the initiative . . .
. . . Now, imagine a voluntary participation rate in excess of 80 percent . . . . . . (and except for a modest one time engagement fee). . . . . . you pay only when goals are achieved.
Here’s how this low-risk / high-reward approach works.
1 LoneStartNow will plan and conduct high-content, high-energy Start Meetings that will benefit all employees. Employees who voluntarily opt-in to the 12-month Team Esteem Challenge will be asked to contribute $5 per employee per month (that’s less than the cost of a fast food meal). 2 Employee total investment . . . $60, paid to LoneStartNow.
3 You, the employer, agree to reimburse that $60, plus a previously-determined bonus to all participants who complete the challenge while maintaining a 1 point or greater BMI reduction (about 7 pounds). You can afford to do this because you’re actually saving about $202 annually in health claims and pharmaceutical costs for each successful participant.** **D. Edington, Ph.D., University of Michigan
This new fee structure effectively overcomes the most significant barrier to participation on the part of the employer. For the employee, it creates the sense of ownership necessary for full engagement. This strategy is equally effective as a stand-alone initiative or as a jump-start for existing, under-performing wellness programs.
