2 Rising healthcare costs Broad range of wellness programs; inhibits focus Difficult to evaluate impact of wellness investments Employer Challenges

3 Physical activity programs can (1) : Reduce short-term sick leave by 6% to 32% Reduce health care costs by 20% to 55% Increase productivity by 2% to 52% Physical activity levels correlate with increased costs (2) : In 2000, healthcare costs associated with inactivity >$76 billion Potential savings of $5.6 billion in heart disease costs if 10% of adults begin a regular walking program Sources: (1) World Health Organization, (2) U.S. Department of Health & Human Services Why Focus on Physical Activity

4 California Study - measured the direct and indirect costs of : inactivity, obesity & overweight (Medical, Rx, Absenteeism, and Presenteeism) Activity is easier to change and track than nutrition or dieting A focus on activity will directly impact obesity costs The activity needed to derive health benefits is misunderstood Source: The Economic Costs of Physical Inactivity, Obesity and Overweight in California Adults: Healthcare, Workers Compensation, and Lost Productivity., Chenoweth & Associates (2005) for the California Department of Health Services Why Focus on Physical Activity

10 The pilot and results to date

11 The Humana pilot Through their interaction with the HealthMiles program, the study was able to track the following measurements for associates: Activity Levels Blood Pressure Body Fat Body Mass Index (BMI)

12 The pilot Pilot run from March 2006 – September 2006 Beginning stats for 726 Humana pilot participants: 13.6% hypertension, 38.6% pre-hypertension 37% obese, 32% overweight Good distribution among age brackets 78.8% elected to have a GoZone Blood PressureBMIAge

13 Contrary to what would be expected, the profile of those who signed up for the program was not skewed to those who were already leading a healthy and active lifestyle… The pilot NOT just attracting the healthy & fit

14 HealthMiles at Humana HealthMiles participants in the pilot tended to have slightly higher severity scores* than the broader population. Severity scores of participants and entire eligible population * A severity score is generated by our predictive model to forecast future costs HealthMiles Participants All eligible employees NOT just attracting the healthy & fit

15 Economic Impact of BMI at Humana Obese Associates had: the highest incidence of chronic disease 48% higher medical costs 29% higher pharmacy costs 44% higher total healthcare costs 14% higher out-of-pocket costs for medical care 29% higher out-of-pocket for medications 21% higher total out-of-pocket costs

16 For every unit-increase in BMI above normal weight: healthcare costs increased 4% - 7% likelihood of diabetes claim increased 11.6% likelihood of heart disease increased 5.2% Humana paid $1,200 more per person with BMI over 30 (obese) than for persons with BMI under 30 Economic Impact of BMI

17 HealthMiles and BMI Participants tend to reduce their Body Mass Index over time People in the program longer tend to improve their BMI more
