Cisco partnered with online personal health management company to offer U.S.-based employees access to an advanced health profiling and health risk assessment tool that scores an individual’s health status, calculates risk levels, and provides recommendations for health improvement and behavior change.
Upon completion of the online assessment, employees receive $100 off their health plan contributions for 2007, and a personalized report outlining individual risks and recommendations. A second $100 discount off their health plan contributions is awarded for following the advice. In 2006, 52 percent of Cisco employees took the health assessment, up 12 percent from 2005.
