For every $1 spent on medical and pharmacy costs, employers incur $2.30 in absenteeism, productivity and presenteeism costs. If condition is Depression, Stress or Anxiety- related, employers incur $20 in “soft costs” for every $1 spent on medical and pharmacy expenses.

Existing medical treatment system: – Designed to “manage” chronic disease…ATF 10+ yrs – Early Detection and Disease Management is NOT Prevention – Lacks effectiveness - chronic disease. Why? – Fails to address the causes i.e. Largely Peoples’ diet and lifestyle habits
15
Very Good News …that’s oddly still largely a secret 75-85% HC spending focused on treating: Preventable diet and lifestyle-based conditions (NIH, CDC, WHO) Majority of chronic illness is preventable
16
Chronic illness: - late stage of health-disease continuum - a continuum that has proven modifiable
18
There’s No Argument New Insights and Approaches are Needed Empowering Health Response-Ability

LifeStrive Health Promotion System Alerts & Informs Individuals ↓ Barriers ↓ Costs Compliments Medical Care ↑ Efficiencies ↓ Burden Enables Health Response-Ability ↑ Inside-out Health Care Inspires Participation Personalized – Uniquely Informative Uniquely Supportive Trend Tracking Before Diagnosis is the Key!
20
We cannot prevent what we cannot predict Predicting, preventing and mitigating chronic and critical disease requires much more comprehensive tracking of trends, than has been available to date in the marketplace
21
Individuals, Corporations & Government - Know Their Health Trend - Know What To Do About It
22
The Cost-Shift
23
Source: The Commonwealth Fund Biennial Health Insurance Survey (2007).
24
All of this bad news has created unprecedented opportunity for products that deliver the solution: Can fill the gaps created by “cost shift” Remove cost and access barriers to critical health/prevention services Help employers “soften the landing” when they raise deductibles or premium contributions Protect people from unforeseen health care expenses and medical bankruptcy * 62% of all bankruptcies in U.S. * 78% had health insurance * $17,749 average amount owed * Harvard University 2007
25
HIPAA Exemption Critical Illness is really chronic illness at a clinical endpoint The critical, chronic and degenerative illnesses AWD insures against account for 75-85% of employer- sponsored health plan costs, not to mention lost productivity, etc… Why Position a Wellness Program in a Voluntary or Supplemental Benefit?
26
When you are able to: Dramatically improve awareness of key risk factors, follow up with properly individualized education and inspirational support, you can help to prevent and mitigate chronic illness and associated expenses… i.e. LifeStrive Have voluntary benefits cover the costs of LS, while providing important employee financial safeguards… Result: These benefits make sense to employers and employees on a whole new level…
