Health Advocate


Health advocate programming is a vital part to any corporate wellness program.

What is a health advocate? Health advocates are personal one-on-one coaches that work with employees in order to improve the health status of wellness program participants.

Why are health advocates important? Health advocates are used most effectively when they are assigned to work with high-risk individuals. These individuals usually have the highest medical claims expense because of unhealthy eating and exercise habits. By assigning higher-risk employees to work with a health advocate on a monthly basis, the health risks for these employees decrease dramatically as do health care costs and employee depression.

A health employee is a happy employee. By working with one-on-one health coaches, employees show increases in productivity, decreases in absenteeism, fewer catastrophic health events, and report higher life satisfaction ratings.

How can your company begin using health advocates? Health advocates are available for one-on-one coaching for any company that uses the Kersh Risk Management wellness program suite of products and services. By using Kersh Risk Management’s wellness program offering, your high-risk employees as well as other employees that the company wishes to have use health advocates can dramatically improve their health status.
