Cost Savings

Managing the costs related to health benefits is crucial to executive teams. A study performed by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality shows that over 85% of health care spend can be associated with chronic disease. Onsite clinics allow employees to manage both chronic and acute illnesses, reducing the need for expensive operations in the long term. 

Productivity Boost

With a health center onsite or near their workplace, employees are provided with a convenient option to receive care. Rather than spending hours travelling to and from a clinic, full-time workers are better able to fit appointments into their already busy work schedule. According to CDC data, approximately 158 billion dollars in productivity is lost every year due to employee sick days. Establishing onsite health clinics will lead to better overall health of the workforce, while drastically reducing employee absenteeism related to medical care over time.

Improved Company Culture

In the current climate, job seekers are not only comparing salaries between potential employers – company culture plays a massive role in their final decision. Creating a culture of health also helps retain top talent as well. 80% of employees would prefer better health benefits over an increase in pay. Investing in healthcare through onsite clinics will strengthen company culture and establish the employer as a company that’s concerned with the health of their employees.

Numbers don’t lie – the statistics prove that employers who decide to implement onsite and near site health clinics for their full-time workers save money and improve the overall morale of their entire workforce. These benefits aren’t only seen on the company balance sheet, but the everyday environment of the workplace overall. When employers are looking to expand access to care, onsite clinics are a clear winner for the betterment of all parties involved.
