2 LET S TALK ABOUT Wellness Program Compliance Legislation Types of Wellness Programs Incentives Cost Containment Strategy Q & A 2
3 LEGAL ASPECTS OF WELLNESS PROGRAMS
4 PRIMARY LAWS GOVERNING WELLNESS PROGRAMS Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), as Amended by the Affordable Care Act Title I of the Americans with Disabilities Act Title II of the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act 4
5 EEOC PROPOSED RULES What is meant by voluntary Employer may offer limited incentives to both employees and spouses as part of wellness programs and can include disability-related inquiries and/or medical examinations Explains confidentiality requirements Explains relationship of rules governing wellness programs to other EEOC laws 5
6 WHEN IS A HEALTH PROGRAM VOLUNTARY? For a health program that includes disability-related inquires or medical examinations to be voluntary, an employer may NOT: Require employees to participate Deny access to health coverage for nonparticipation Limit coverage under its health plans or particular benefits packages within a group health plan for such employees, except in certain circumstances Take any other adverse action or retaliate against, interfere with, coerce, intimidate, or threaten employees as prohibited under the ADA 6
7 TYPES OF VOLUNTARY WELLNESS PROGRAMS Participatory Activity-Only Health Contingent Outcomes- Based 7
8 TYPES OF WELLNESS PROGRAMS: PARTICIPATORY ONLY Participants don t have to meet a health standard in order to receive a reward Must follow the 9.5% affordability rule (before reward is applied) Reward incentives must equal less than 30% of total premium Must offer reasonable alternatives and an appeals process *if a medical issue exists Both employee and spouse can qualify for incentive Examples Completing a health risk assessment or screening (with no further action required) Attending lunch-and-learn session(s) Engaging in a campaign or activity such as walking program, community event (5K or Habitat for Humanity), or a combination of several activities. 8
9 TYPES OF WELLNESS PROGRAMS: HEALTH CONTINGENT (ACTIVITY-ONLY) Just like it sounds participants perform an activity to earn a reward Don t have to meet or maintain a specific health outcome Must follow the 9.5% affordability rule (before reward/penalty) Max 30% reward or 50% penalty (if tobacco affidavit/ Cotinine testing is done) Must offer reasonable alternatives and an appeals process *even if NO medical issue exists Both employee and spouse can qualify for incentive Examples Walking / nutrition / exercise programs Some employees may have difficulty participating due to health conditions like asthma, recent surgery, pregnancy Wellness plans can request a physician statement to allow applicability of rewards Completing a tobacco cessation course Completing a weight management program 9
10 TYPES OF WELLNESS PROGRAMS: HEALTH CONTINGENT (OUTCOMES-BASED) An individual is required to accomplish health goals to obtain a reward (or avoid a tobacco penalty) Same guidelines as with Activity-Only Health Contingent programs Plus FIVE (5) conditions under ACA: 1. accomplish 1X year 2. limit reward/penalty 3. designed to promote/prevent disease 4. waiver if unreasonably difficult or medically inadvisable (activity) 5. reasonable alternative standard, with disclosure Examples Meeting biometric health markers (such as BMI <30) in order to qualify for an annual health plan premium discount Being tobacco free Tobacco user completing a tobacco cessation program and/or quitting the use of tobacco 10
11 WELLNESS PROGRAM STRUCTURE Participation-Based (regardless of health status) Activity-Only (based upon health status) Health-Contingent Outcomes-Based (based upon health status) Examples Screening incentive Attending lunch and learn Fitness reimbursement Completing a HRA Completing a tobacco cessation program Exercise, diet or walking programs Goal tied to a health outcome (cholesterol, BMI, blood pressure, glucose, tobacco free) Reasonable Alternative Must offer a reasonable alternative Must offer a reasonable alternative or full reward, even if no medical issue exists Must offer a reasonable alternative and full reward, even if no medical issue exists Communicate clearly that a physician can provide a waiver or reasonable alternative to receive the full reward Type 2 Appeal Must offer a reasonable alternative and full reward if a medical issue exists Communicate clearly that a physician can provide a waiver or reasonable alternative to receive the full reward Size of Financial Impact Max 30% reward (without tobacco) Must be considered voluntary and positioned as a reward Must follow the 9.5% affordability rule (before reward/penalty) Cannot limit benefits or deny coverage to those who don t participate Max 30% reward (without tobacco) Max 30% or 50% penalty (including tobacco with/without Cotinine testing) Must be considered voluntary and follow 9.5% affordability rule (before reward/penalty) Tobacco users who complete a cessation program or quit should receive retroactive premium credit as a non-smoker Cannot limit benefits or deny coverage to those who don t participate 11
12 WHAT INCENTIVES ARE PERMITTED? Health assessment, biometric screening and/or tobacco screening participation is allowed Affordability and maximum incentive testing must be performed on the total of ALL incentives offered Incentive cannot exceed max allowable % of the total cost of employee-only coverage: Good health = 30% reward Tobacco use = 30% penalty (Nicotine test) = 50% penalty (affidavit only) Total reward can t exceed 50% limit, if tobacco affidavit is used. Examples: 30% for walking + 20% for tobacco ok 10% for BMI + 40% for tobacco ok 30% for BMI + 30% for tobacco X = more than 50% total 12
13 TOBACCO USE PREMIUM DIFFERENTIALS Continued ACA support for incentives tied to tobacco status resulted in an increase in employers offering lower premium contributions to non-tobacco users. Employers Incenting Non-Tobacco Users 21% Although the ACA supports a maximum incentive for non-tobacco use of 50% the cost of health coverage, only 6% of employers say they will set their incentive in line with this maximum 10% 12% 15% 17% $480: The median annual tobacco vs. nontobacco user differential Self-confirmation is the most popular than testing to determine tobacco status. Only 17% of employers with these programs test (for example, with a cotinine test) % of employers that have policies or incentives regarding tobacco use include e- cigarettes in the definition of tobacco Source: Mercer National Survey of Employer- Sponsored Health Plans, 2015 Survey Report 13
14 COST CONTAINMENT STRATEGY
15 WELLNESS AS A STRATEGIC INITIATIVE People are your most valuable asset Today more and more employers are recognizing the power of putting people first because when employees can t make time to practice healthy habits, it impacts their performance and in-turn, the business. When companies make wellbeing a strategic initiative employees become: More efficient More effective More productive Employees who don t get enough sleep are 32% less productive 1 Employees who regularly exercise during their workday get a cognitive uplift of 23% 2 1. Making the Case: Supporting Employee Well-being. Virgin Pulse International Journal of Workplace Health Management It all starts with a clear strategy Company leaders need to focus on integrating a wellbeing strategy into the overall corporate strategy. That means: Clearly defining objectives Identifying resources, needs and partners Allocating a budget that can yield sustainable results 15
16 IMPACT OF HEALTH MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS Positive Impact on Disability Cost Trend 5% Improved Attraction and Retention 7% Improved Productivity 9% Positive Impact on Medical Cost Trend (>= cost of program) 37% No Positive Impact Seen So Far 9% Have Not Attempted to Measure 48% 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% Source: 2014 National Survey of Employer- Sponsored Health Plans, Mercer 16
