Mayo Clinic leverages Mayo’s health care expertise to meet the specific population health management needs of employers and member organizations. We do this by drawing upon the expertise of Mayo Clinic medical, health education and behavior change experts, and by keeping our finger on the pulse of health and productivity management needs. This approach allows us to deliver state-of-the-art health management products and services to organizations in order to meet their short- and long-term health management goals.

Health and productivity management:
the economic imperative

An often-used quote from a senior human resources executive at Chrysler Corporation reveals the importance of employee health in today’s business world:

“Something I think people would find surprising is that the most expensive component of a Chrysler brand vehicle isn’t steel or plastic, but health care.”

— Kathy Oswald, Senior VP of Human Resources, Chrysler Corp.

This is backed up by broad studies that now put the annual costs of poor employee health at more than $10,000 per employee per year. On the other hand, research also shows that healthy employees can be more productive on the job, have fewer injuries and therefore are absent less.

Health promotion programs that move
populations toward better health

Mayo Clinic is working with more and more organizations that are recognizing this economic imperative and are working to improve the health and productivity of their employees or members. These forward-thinking companies are making health management a key business strategy by identifying population health concerns, targeting those issues with proactive programs and gathering the information needed to measure progress over time.

Mayo Clinic EmbodyHealth products and services address the full spectrum of health management goals from identifying health risks, to education on prevention and self-care, to moving people toward healthier lifestyles and better management of chronic conditions. We can also help organizations build a customized health benefit plan that motivates better health, with claims administration services, consumer-driven health plans and pharmacy benefit consulting.
