Employer wellness programs are widely used as a means to confront annual increases in the cost of health benefits, but many fail to deliver the hoped-for ROI. The most effective approach is to implement a holistic population health service that uses data to drive better and more cost-effective care. Dr. Jay Wohlgemuth will share Quest Diagnostics’ two-year journey to stop and reverse rising healthcare costs, which had topped $350 million for the company and its 60,000 employees. Launched as an internal pilot, he will detail an integrated strategy that includes lab screenings, population management and data analytics — and the returns it’s already beginning to reap.
