Creating a workplace wellness program without data is like throwing a dart into the ocean and hoping to catch a fish. Without insight, even well intentioned efforts can miss the mark.
An effective workplace wellness strategy starts with a strong foundation: data. Assessment tools help organizations gather the information needed to design wellness programs that truly support employees. By collecting and reviewing data from multiple sources, employers can better understand employee needs and make decisions based on evidence rather than assumptions.

The most valuable insights come from three sources: the organization, its employees and the health plan. Together, these perspectives reveal where opportunities exist to improve wellbeing while aligning with organizational priorities. We offer a variety of assessment tools that support this approach: the Workplace Health Assessment, the employee interest survey, and dashboard reports, including the Member Engagement Dashboard and the Preventive Services Dashboard.
The Workplace Health Assessment evaluates evidence-based practices already in place at an organization, such as policies, benefits, and leadership support that contribute to employee wellbeing. Results help identify strengths to build on and gaps that may be limiting program impact.
Employee interest surveys capture what employees want, what motivates them, and what barriers they face. They can also measure program satisfaction, helping organizations refine offerings and increase participation.
Finally, the dashboards use health plan data to provide snapshots of key metrics, including use of preventive services like well visits and cancer screenings, as well as engagement with health plan digital tools.
Together, these assessment tools give organizations the insights they need to build targeted, measurable wellness strategies that support both employee health and organizational goals.
