Workplace wellness & HRA

MercyCare Health Plans shares your goal of lower health care costs and believes healthy workers are the most productive. We feel this is best accomplished with on-site wellness programs that not only focus on managing employees with known illnesses, but also screening and preventing common illnesses. View the links below to find out how we can partner with your company to help you live well.

Health risk assessment (HRA)

Details

MercyCare Health Plans HRA program is available online for easier access. An HRA is a short, confidential survey designed to assess your health status through a “wellness score” and “health age” that reflects lifestyle habits and current health. See below for a link to a sample member report with survey questions.

Our HRA reports help businesses understand the health status and productivity of their employees. Businesses do not receive individual employee data. The following reports are available at no cost when you have 20 or more employees/spouses enrolled in MercyCare Health Plans who complete the HRA:

  • Executive summary: Prioritizes risk factors and recommendations for health improvement programs based on the needs of the group. View a sample report.

Using incentives

The more employees who take the HRA, the more accurately the report represents your workforce. We highly encourage employers to offer incentives to their employees who complete the assessment. There are many types of incentives, ranging from drawings to health premium reduction.
