Health Risk Assements- HRA'S
THREE PARTS OF THE HRA
HRA'S are a scientific statistical analysis of a persons behaviors.  Some of the behaviors that affect   your health and longevity include smoking, diet, exercise, stress and  medical parameters such as blood pressure and cholesterol level.  HRA's identify the behaviors that increase your risk of illness and premature death.  These behaviors can then be targeted with the goal of a happier, healthier lifestyle.  HRA's and Risk Reduction have been proven to Lower Costs of Health and Workers Compensation Insurance, to reduce  Disability Costs and to Increase Employee Productivity.
Questionnaire:
Computerized Computation of Risk:
Risk Report:
The questionnaire is an on-line comprehensive list of questions regarding your lifestyle and behaviors.  You can revisit on-line and change your answers and re-calculate your results.
The information provided in the questionnaire is computer analyzed and compared with data
regarding known statistical outcomes for various risk behaviors.
The report identifies which behaviors are associated with increased chances of good health and longevity and which behaviors are not.  It aids you in determining which behaviors to  changes and identifies how much these changes can affect your health and longevity.  This remarkable tool, combined with information from diagnostic evaluations, allows your employee  to identify behavior that could increase their risk of illness or premature death.

Once your employees have completed their Risk Assessment and Diagnostic Evaluation, we can identify which health behaviors can be improved, for example treating high blood pressure or quitting smoking.  We then review the data from the employees "Readiness for Change" questionairre.  Risk Assessment tells us how many employees smoke.  Readiness for change tells us how many employees would consider quitting.
It is of no benefit to institute a Quit Smoking Program if either:
A)  Nobody Smokes or
B)  Everybody Smokes, but no one will consider quitting !
