Health and Productivity
Cost Analysis
This instrument, co-developed
with Dr. David Chenoweth, is an innovative medical claims analysis
tool which assists organizations
in identifying their most costly lifestyle-related risk factors that
are modifiable and preventable. Additionally, CalcuL8™ identifies
productivity loss costs associated with these risk factors. CalcuL8™ projects
future healthcare-related costs for the company and provides break-even
analysis scenarios and return-on-investment projections for interventions
related to the company’s eight most costly lifestyle-related risk
factors.
CalcuL8™ begins with
the collection of organizational population data sing a data request
form (DRF):
Demographic information
Health claims metrics
Employee health risk factors (including personal behaviors and environmental
risks)
Data on the organization’s health promotion programming
Once the data is submitted,
the CalcuL8™ report examines eight
of the twenty-five Major Diagnostic Categories (MDCs) which are most
closely related to lifestyle behaviors. Examining costs of all risk factors
across these eight MDCs is how CalcuL8™ determines dollar amounts
associated with modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors.
