  A National Institutes of Health study found that the difference in total healthcare costs between employees that exercised and those that didn't averaged $669 per year. Similarly, the Health Management Research Center at the University of Michigan found that a wellness program that moved "high-risk" employees (those with two to four high-risk characteristics such as smoking, little exercise and being overweight) to "low-risk" resulted in an average annual medical insurance-cost reduction of $618. According to the Wellness Council of America, a review of 32 studies of corporate wellness programs found claims costs were reduced by 27.8%, physician visits declined by 16.5%, hospital admissions declined by 62.5%, disability costs reduced by 34.4%, and incidence of injury declined by 24.8%. |
