About Us

Mercy Workforce Health Initiative

For years, employers have understood that workforce health is key to the promotion of morale, productivity and profits. At the same time, employers are struggling with the challenge of maintaining balance between a sustainable business plan and rapidly rising employee health care costs.

Studies show that employee wellness programs are an important way employers can help address health care cost and possible reduce future health care claims expense. That’s why Mercy Medical Center and Mercy Business Health Services have partnered with Aegis, Inc., a national employer relations organization, to offer a unique program in the tri-state region. The Mercy Workforce Health Initiative uses an early detection and prevention approach plus employee education to enhance workforce health and reduce employer healthcare costs.

The Mercy Workforce Health Initiative is a comprehensive workplace wellness program designed specifically for employers. It requires little expenditure of human or monetary resources. Working together, we can help focus efforts you already have in place or give you the means to begin taking control of employee health benefit costs.

We will help you to create a Workforce Health Profile, a forward-looking, real-time “health snapshot” of your workforce. The profile provides a very valuable analysis of potential health risks that, left untreated, could result in significant health claims expense.

Most importantly, the Workforce Health Profile identifies health risks unique and specific to your employees. This allows us to take a predictive health risk management approach to controlling employee health care costs.

Working with our health professionals, we can construct a sustainable employee health initiative that will proactively work to control your health claim expenses by impacting actual risks to your company or organization prior to becoming costly claims.

Get started today, and we’ll help you save money tomorrow.
