Case Study: North Carolina County
In order to maximize the benefits of a corporate Health Management Program, Healthstat believes it is critical to track participant health from one assessment to the next.

Resulting highlights of these "monitored participants" follows:- 74% did not raise their risk level (34% reduced + 40% maintained)
- 55% decrease in the number of participants with >/= 6 risk factors.
- Top 20% of highest risk BMI participants reduced their measurement by 2.6%
- Top 20% of highest risk LDL Cholesterol participants reduced their measurement by 17%. (Entire population averaged 16% below Healthstat's goal of <130.)
