Why Isn’t Wellness Easy?

Behavior

Behavior is a significant driver of health and wellness.

There is often resistance to change from employees wary of their employer regulating off-the-clock behaviors.

How will BCBS help to influence and change behaviors?

Uncertainty

Employees often want to change, but don’t know how to begin, or where to find the right tools to make decisions.

How will BCBS help educate and guide your employees?

Motivation

Some employees will maintain their lifestyle improvements on their own.

Others will need additional help to keep going.

How will BCBS help motivate your employees through their wellness journey?
