The employer gets a report on the overall health of the employees, aggregated as a group so they can tell what percentage of employees are at risk for drug abuse, alcoholism, etc. well that is if the assessment was truthful. Software to manage risk as the website states and Blue Shield of California is listed as one of their clients. BD
Health care benefits management software vendor Benefitfocus Inc. has introduced an online personal health assessment tool that employers can offer to employees. The application enables employees to complete an online survey and receive a health profile report. The report, which can be printed, offers recommendations for improving health and reducing risk factors.
The application also can manage financial incentive programs for employees who complete the survey or meet specific health-related criteria, according to the Charleston, S.C.-based vendor
