Agenda 02/28/2012 Item #16E2EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to approve Amendment #2 to the Letter of Agreement with Quest Diagnostics, Inc. to provide follow up lipid and A1C testing services in support of the Wellness Based Incentives Program in an estimated amount of $10,410. OBJECTIVE: To provide follow up lipid and Al C testing in support of the Wellness Based Incentives Program. CONSIDERATIONS: On January 1, 2009 the Risk Management Department implemented a behavior based wellness incentives program into the Collier County Group Health Plan. The purpose of the program is to engage employees to participate in various wellness related activities or "qualifiers" to prevent illness and to manage chronic disease. Employees are enrolled in one of three plans with progressively better benefits (Basic, Select, or Premium) based upon their completion of these qualifiers. The qualifiers include the completion of a personal wellness profile; the gathering of weight, height and waist measurements; a complete blood analysis; age and gender based screenings; and participation in diabetes management and smoking cessation programs (if applicable). The participation rate by employees has consistently exceeded 90 %. Quest Diagnostics, Inc. provides the blood analysis, biometric measurement and wellness reporting portion of the program. Once the testing is completed, the results are sent to the onsite Health Advocate and incorporated into the member's Personal Wellness Profile report. Since the inception of the program, an emphasis has been placed on identifying and managing diabetes. In 2012, an additional emphasis is being placed on managing cardiac health. The Wellness staff has developed two educational and medical management programs to address diabetes and lipid management which require a second follow up test in addition to the initial test. The purpose of this second test is to measure the progress of the member and to clinically support the educational components of these programs. It is recommended that these additional tests be incorporated in the existing Quest test panel. Amendment #2 to the current agreement with Quest Diagnostics identifies the two additional test panels and the associated cost per test. These tests include a Lipid Panel and an Al C test. The blood draws will be managed through the MedCenter onsite clinic. Thus, no additional office visit costs will be incurred. The commencement date of Amendment #2 is effective March 1, 2012. FISCAL IMPACT: The cost per test is $34.50 for the Lipid test and $24.00 for the Al C test. It is estimated that approximately 180 employees will need to complete the Lipid test and 175 employees will need to complete the Al C test. Total annual cost is expected to be $10,410. Funds are budgeted within Fund 517, Group Health and Life Insurance to fund the program. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no growth management impact associated with this item. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item has been reviewed and approved by the County Attorney's Office, is legally sufficient for Board action and only requires a majority vote for approval —SRT. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Board of Commissioners approves Amendment #2 to the Letter of Agreement with Quest Diagnostics, Inc. and authorizes the Chairman to execute the amendment.
