Todd Olson: Top 4 Reasons For On-Site Health Care Centers
Submitted by Anonymous on Tue, 08/27/2013 - 14:10
- Enhancement of worker productivity
- Reduction of medical costs
- Better integration of all health productivity efforts
- Improved access to primary care
Notes: The workplace clinic itself is not a new idea. Up until the mid-1980s it was common for large employers to operate on-site company clinics to treat work-related injuries. Many of these clinics closed because of declines in manufacturing and workplace hazards becoming less common in these sectors. The reemergence of this care model is largely an effort by employers to improve worker productivity and mitigate skyrocketing health care costs.
