Presently they have more than 80% employee participation. They fill out a health history and if they are found to be high risk for chronic condition they are asked to be a part of free programs and coaching to get them on the path to healthier living. Employees are given a $500.00 credit toward their health insurance premiums. They also have access to fitness centers. By doing this, Johnson and Johnson has seen dramatic reduction in company health care costs. The focus is not on diagnosing and treating employees with problems. The focus is on prevention and changing behaviors. Jenny Gold, KHN Staff Writer
