Health & Wellness Programs and Services
Studies show health and wellness programs can significantly reduce health costs over time and in the long run. But, in today’s economy, how much money can you spare, up front, for long-term gain?
At Clinix Healthcare, our Health and Wellness programs are completely customizable for just that reason. They are available a la carte or bundled. Choose one or mix and match to suit your particular needs. And, they’re flexible as well, allowing you to add or subtract services as your company’s finances allow.
Health Risk Assessment
In order for a wellness program to be successful, it must begin with a Health Risk Assessment. The Clinix HRA is a two-page questionnaire that can be taken on-line or with pen and paper. Its questions gather important information regarding the individual’s current health status, lifestyle choices and family history. When combined with a Health Fair/Screening, it becomes an invaluable tool for charting the course your wellness program should take.
Health Fair/Screening
A Clinix Health Fair/Screening can be held at your place of business. We utilize a biometric screenings that require just a simple finger prick. This allows the clinician to provide immediate results to the participant and, if results are abnormal, presents an opportunity for immediate counseling with a registered nurse. This screening includes tests for:
- Total Cholesterol
- LDL (Bad Cholesterol)
- HDL (good cholesterol)
- Triglycerides
- Glucose
Other on-site screenings with immediate results include:
- Blood Pressure
- Body Mass Index (BMI)
- Body Fat
- Waist Circumference
In addition, testing can be done on-site, with follow-up results for:
- High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein: This is an inexpensive test to determine the risk of coronary events, such as heart attack and stroke.
- Vitamin D Deficiencies: Vitamin D assists in the absorption of calcium, promotes bone density and protects against a number of serious diseases. A deficiency can be the result of diet and/or a lack of sun exposure.
- Thyroid Issues: Because symptoms appear gradually, thyroid problems are historically under diagnosed, despite their pervasiveness.
- Stool Blood: An easy, inexpensive test that employees can perform at home. Test can lead to early detection of bleeding ulcers, hemorrhoids, polyps, colitis, diverticulitis, fissures and colon cancer.
