Wellco Awarded Michigan’s Economic Bright Spots

May 18, 2011 - PRLog -- Royal Oak, Michigan  -- Corp! magazine, in their third annual review of Michigan’s Economic Bright Spots, recognized companies who are not only weathering the storm but arguably riding above it altogether. Corp! provided the award to businesses that are successful, growing and making a conscious decision to stay in Michigan.

When it comes to managing health care costs, Wellco takes what’s arguably a different yet refreshing approach. “Rather than focus on what’s wrong, we focus on doing what’s right,” says CEO Scott Foster. “Other programs that incorporate cost sharing and a change of benefit plans merely shift costs, often without regard to the core problem: the demand for health care.” The firm’s wellness ROI programs combine cutting-edge technology while integrating best practices and a documentation of outcomes. The result, says Foster, can be savings of tens of thousands of dollars annually. “Wellness is a revolution that can enhance almost every aspect of your company where, after all, your company’s fiscal health is the bottom line,” he says. “Wellco is proud to provide the only return-on-investment wellness systems with measurable results.  In comparison, the typical wellness program has no data to show if it is even working.”  Foster, who says the approach has been tested in hundreds of organizations, points to quantifiable improvements in corporate health costs and risks. “Previously, businesses have not had the resources necessary to effectively cut health care costs and to know which of their efforts are working.” Wellco is growing their approach, which Foster calls “white label and rebrandable,” into various health systems, health plans and benefit firms who want to build their brand without sacrificing outcomes.

Corp! will honor these winners in a special feature print edition of Corp! and during an upcoming awards presentation.
