Nearly 40% of Preventive Care Actions Are Not Completed**

preventive-care-gap-graph-2

Employee Inaction Raises Healthcare Costs.

You already invest in preventive care—annual visits, screenings, biometrics, and adherence programs.

But many employees don’t complete them.

High-cost conditions go undetected or unmanaged and expected cost savings never materialize.

When employees don’t take action, you carry the financial risk—because as the plan sponsor, you are the risk bearer.

The problem isn’t access. It’s getting employees to actually complete the actions.

Why most incentive strategies don’t drive behavior

Most employer incentive programs are built around distribution, not outcomes.

1. Rewards are generic and not tied to health actions
2. Incentives are delayed or disconnected from behavior
3. Premium differentials feel like penalties, not motivation
4. There’s no clear link between action → reward → cost impact

 

The result is low completion, wasted incentive spend, and no clear ROI story for leadership.

If you improve completion, you improve outcomes and reduce cost risk

Preventive care only works if employees complete it. When preventive actions go incomplete, small, manageable issues escalate into high-cost conditions.

Instead of adding more programs, fix the missing piece: how incentives are structured.

When incentives are clearly tied to specific, verified actions and delivered in a way that feels immediate and meaningful, they shift from passive perks to active drivers of behavior.

The result is a more predictable, controllable path from preventive care investment to actual cost savings

Incentives that drive measurable completion

Incentives tied to verified actions—not participation

We help you drive completion by restructuring incentives around verified employee actions, like:

  • Annual wellness visits
  • Preventive screenings
  • Biometric testing
  • Medication adherence

How it works:

  1. Incentives are triggered only after completion
  2. Rewards are tied directly to the behavior you want
  3. Every dollar spent connects to a measurable outcome

This creates a clear path: Action → Completion → Reward → Measurable Impact

Only pay for outcomes—not intent

Traditional incentive programs create waste:

  • Prefunded budgets go unused
  • Rewards are issued without behavior change
  • ROI is unclear

Our model changes that:

  1. Fund-on-claim: Pay only when actions are completed
  2. Reduced waste: No unused incentive budgets
  3. Better allocation: Spend tied directly to cost-reducing behaviors

Every incentive dollar is accountable.

Incentives that reinforce healthy behavior

Incentives work best when they reinforce the action they’re tied to.

With health-focused gift card incentives:

  1. Employees complete a screening or visit
  2. Receive a reward
  3. Use it for real health-related needs

This creates a reinforcement loop:

Complete care → Get rewarded → Reinforce behavior

And ensures your incentive spend supports the outcomes you’re trying to drive

You don’t just need engagement—you need results you can defend.

With the right structure, you can track:

  1. Completion rates by program
  2. Cost per completed action
  3. Changes in preventive care utilization
  4. Impact on overall health spend

This turns incentives into a measurable cost-control strategy—not a perk.

Use cases that drive measurable completion

Focus incentives on high-impact actions where completion directly improves outcomes and reduces cost risk.
