| Abstrakt: |
The objective of this study was to determine the sustained economic impact of a health promotion/disease prevention program delivered through a large regional health plan. This was a retrospective analysis of health risk, health claims, and cost using a mixed model factorial design for the years 2002-2009 that compared program participants to nonparticipants. All analyses were adjusted for age, sex, morbidity, and baseline health care costs as appropriate. The findings presented herein indicate a positive return on investment (ROI) for each program year with ratios ranging from a low of 1.16:1 to a high of 2.83:1. The average ROI collapsed across all 8 years was 2.02:1. The 2009 ROI approximated over $6 million in total savings. This study demonstrates the sustained economic value of a comprehensive health promotion program. ( Population Health Management 2014;17:90-99) [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
