Stressed-out workers spend $1,500 more on health care each year: Former Aetna CEO
One secret to this success: Bertolini began letting his employees take yoga and pet dogs during their lunch break.
An internal Aetna study found that employees in the top 20% of stress levels had $1,500 a year more in health-care costs. One of the factors Bertolini wanted to focus on most was ensuring employees got a sufficient amount of sleep every night. To encourage this, Aetna began paying $300 for employees who received 7.5 hours of sleep at night for 20 nights in a row. The company also doubled their tuition assistance program and increased their efforts to pay back student loans.
The key variable the company came up with at the time was that for every 50 basis points changed in health-care costs, there was $480 million improvement in underwriting margin, and another $480 million for the client. So it developed this model and team of people that did nothing but look for ways to improve the quality of care, to improve the quality of life, to reduce another 50 basis points.
