1 WELLNESS SUCCESS: The proof is in the numbers Personalized wellness. It works.

2 WHY WELLNESS? DO THE MATH: Employee health and productivity are suffering Heart disease is America s #1 killer 1 1/2 of the adults in the U.S. have diabetes or pre-diabetes 2 Employees with depression account for an estimated $44 billion per year in lost productivity 3 Every 42 seconds, heart disease strikes someone in the U.S. 2

3 EXPENSES KEEP ADDING UP: Employee healthcare costs are breaking the bank Deductibles have risen 7x faster than wages over the past five years4 Healthcare costs are growing 4x faster than general inflation5 From employer premium contributions rose 61% for family coverage4

4 TIME TO CHANGE THE EQUATION: Employers need a better approach to preventive care 82% of at-risk Interactive Health participants saw their blood pressure drop 6 68% of at-risk Interactive Health participants lowered their LDL numbers 6 61% of at-risk Interactive Health participants reduced their glucose levels 6 Our participants see dramatic health improvements. Want to know how?

5 THE RIGHT WELLNESS FORMULA: An effective approach starts with connection Connecting all Interactive Health participants with speed and insight to their health risks Quickly fostering increased physician involvement and follow up Personalized action plan generated by proprietary ActiveEngine technology to address each Interactive Health participant s health risks Interactive touchpoints throughout the year to keep wellness top of mind

6 SEE ENGAGEMENT MULTIPLY: Targeted and meaningful interventions can successfully reach and engage employees where they are Immediate outreach results in 70% average engagement rate with high-risk Interactive Health participants 6 Incentives tailored to each unique client population and culture Company-wide challenges that strengthen participation and community Relevant member website content results in 10 minutes on average spent by Interactive Health participants per visit 6

7 LESS IS MORE: Employers achieve lower overall health risks 36% of Interactive Health participants at high risk improved their personal health score to a moderate or healthy state in one year 6 78% of Interactive Health participants at moderate risk either improved or maintained their health state in one year 6

8 LOWER THIS NUMBER A1C: Successfully reduce diabetes risk 34% of Interactive Health participants with pre-diabetes migrated back to a healthy state in the first year 6 58% of Interactive Health participants with diabetes reduced their glucose levels in one year 6 Wouldn t your company like to avoid the nearly $8,000 in annual incremental costs for each employee with diabetes? 7

9 THE RESULTS ARE EXPONENTIAL: The right wellness program will positively impact the bottom line On average, 20% reduction in medical spend for Interactive Health clients 8 Greater productivity and decreased absenteeism Interactive Health participants return to work: 11days sooner on average from workers compensation 8 and 17days sooner on average from short-term disability 8
