1 Client Report For: Missouri Western State University October 28, 2013

2 Executive Summary PROGRAM OVERVIEW From 1/1/2013-9/30/2013, Missouri Western State University participants participated in a screening program administered by HealthFitness. Any filters used to create this report are displayed in Appendix B. The HealthFitness screening program typically includes screenings for blood lipids, blood pressure, and obesity, unless customized by the client. The primary goals of the HealthFitness screening were to increase participant health awareness and to evaluate group health status for Missouri Western State University. PARTICIPANT DEMOGRAPHICS A total of 146 unique individuals participated in the screening. TABLE 1: BIOMETRIC SCREENING PARTICIPANT DATA Gender # % Female % Male % Total % Age At Screening # % % % % % % 65 and Over 7 4.8% Total % The following pages recap the results from the HealthFitness screenings to assess how well the program met the goals of the program. Specifically, this report evaluates the profile of program participants and the overall outcomes of the assessments. Additionally, the Appendix provides the statistics from the screenings that were used to compile the Outcomes Summary Health Fitness Corporation Page 2

3 Outcome Summary Screening Results The following table (Table 2) illustrates how your population compares to other companies in the HealthFitness database. These are not recommended ranges but an example of which risk factors have been most prevalent in other organizations. Table 2: Comparison to HealthFitness Database Risk Factor High Risk Factor Missouri Western State HealthFitness 2012 Blood Glucose Definition Fasting 126mg/dl Non- Fasting 200mg/dl University Participants Database 2.1% 3.0% Blood Pressure 140/90 6.8% 6.9% HDL Cholesterol <40mg/dl 22.6% 24.7% Obesity BMI % 34.6% Total Cholesterol 240mg/dl 8.9% 6.6% High risk individuals typically generate higher avoidable health care costs than individuals with a lower health risk status. The graph below (Graph 1) breaks down participant health risk status based on the screenings included in the assessment. The risk prevalence is broken down into moderate and high health risk status Health Fitness Corporation Page 3

Cardiovascular disease impacts corporations in the form of lost productivity and high health care costs for those with the disease. An estimated 81 million American adults (more than 1 in 3) have one or more types of cardiovascular disease Health Fitness Corporation Page 4

5 FINANCIAL IMPACT SUMMARY From the corporate perspective, there is significant research available to support substantial health care cost and productivity savings associated with improving participant health. HealthFitness has performed a data analysis that can help assess the excess health care costs associated with high risk participants at Missouri Western State University. Research indicates that reducing participants' high health risk status can lead to health care cost savings for the company. On the subsequent page, the impact of excess health risks on health care costs is depicted. Using industry averages for health care costs, we have combined the HealthFitness screening program data with research and professional medical opinion to help quantify the program's potential return to Missouri Western State University in terms of health care cost savings. This information is for predictive purposes only and is not a guarantee of savings. However, this information may provide a more tangible perspective on the potential financial value of a health management program. One of the most current and widely accepted research models conducted by the Health Enhancement Research Organization was published in the Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine. The study tracked over 46,000 employees from various organizations through a health risk assessment and medical care costs. The researchers were able to determine a relationship between health risks and medical care expenses for a working population. Researchers found that individuals who were high risk for certain health risk factors experienced higher medical claims than those at lower risk. Their findings were that a difference in costs exists in nearly all of the compared risk categories between high risk and low risk employees. To apply this study to Missouri Western State University, up to four of the study's ten risk factors evaluated were also assessed based on the components selected in your screening program. The table below outlines the following: The common risk factors between the study and the HealthFitness screening program The average annual medical claims costs for high risk participants, estimated based on an average health care expenditure of $11,188 per participant The number of Missouri Western State University participants that were high risk for each factor The excess care costs associated with each risk factor 2013 Health Fitness Corporation Page 5

Not all of the participants with health risks will correct their problems. However, HealthFitness experience shows that many do and that it is reasonably conservative to estimate a risk reduction rate of 20%. It is important to note that the total excess health care cost only deals with excess costs related to up to four biometric risk factors that were evaluated with the screening program. This is potentially a small fraction of the return that can be realized from HealthFitness programming since other lifestyle and behavioral risk factors were not analyzed in the screening Health Fitness Corporation Page 6
