Key Terms
Economic Return: The monetary benefit (savings) associated with a program.
Return-on-investment (ROI): The monetary benefit (savings) associated with a program divided by the cost of that program expressed as a percent.
Cost/Benefit (C/B) Ratio:The monetary benefit(savings) associated with a program divided by the cost of that program expressed as an integer and/or a decimal.
Net Present Value:A commonly accepted way of estimating the time adjusted net monetary benefit(savings) associated with a program expressed as a dollar amount.

Context Issues for Economic Return
• Who receives the savings
associated with the
program?
• When do they receive it?
• Who pays for the
program?
• When do they pay for it?
• What savings and what
costs are included?

Other Literature Reviews
Aldana• “The initial search identified 196 studies, but
only 72 met the inclusion criteria and were
included in the review.”
• “There are good correlational data to suggest
that high levels of stress, excessive body
weight, and multiple risk factors are associated
with increased health care costs and illness-
related absenteeism.”
• “Health promotion programs are associated
with lower levels of absenteeism and health
care costs, and fitness programs are
associated with reduced health care costs.”
• Average health care savings = 1:3.48
• Average sick leave savings = 1:5.82

Summary of Main Points
• A consistent economic framework is important to the field of Worksite
Wellness.
• There is a potential of five separate economic variables that an
employer can use to determine the economic return of a Wellness
program.
• Virtually no employer has used all five variables to determine the
economic return from their Wellness program.
• There is a significant amount of evidence about the increased cost
associated with risk factors that Wellness programs address.
• There are more than 60 peer review studies that demonstrate the
economic value of Wellness.
• A new meta-analysis from some Harvard economists establishes the
clear economic benefit of Wellness programs,
• We still need additional studies on the economic return of Wellness
programs.13

Q & A Session
• Why do self-insured employers have a greater incentive to do
Wellness?
• How much knowledge of the ROI studies do most senior managers
have?
• What economic variables make the most sense for small employers?
• What is likely to happen to ROI analysis with the implementation of
health care reform?
• What would you do with evidence of economic return?
• How much does a comprehensive economic analysis of a Worksite
Wellness program cost?
• How can our Wellness program’s economic return be increased?
• What factors influence the economic return of a Wellness program?
• Why is our senior management so focused on ROI?
