According to a recent white paper from Viverae, “preventative screenings could save more than 100,000 lives per year.” Currently, employees and employers are becoming more aware of the benefits of biometric screenings, such as making employees more aware of critical health information, potentially reducing medical expenses for themselves as well as employers. Access to biometric screenings has become increasingly more convenient to employees, taking only a few minutes to complete and test results are often made available online. Removing barriers to access allows people to take a more active role in their health. According to Viverae, 70% of all health care costs are the direct result of behavior, and 74% of all costs are confined to four chronic conditions (cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and obesity). The Medivo Clinic provides access to these tests for employers, patients and physicians for biometric screenings, as well as disease monitoring and management. Click here to read the full report.
