LET’SBEGINABOUT MELIORA TECHNOLOGY

A successful wellness system isn’t just about spewing out reams of data once or twice a year. It’s about providing tools to encourage participation, deliver actionable information and create significant and quantifiable changes in participants’ behavior.

Put simply, healthy employees are less costly, thanks to lower premiums and reduced health care claims. That’s why for so many companies, making an investment in a wellness program isn’t an unwanted cost center – it’s a welcome source of cost reductions.

That’s why we’ve focused tirelessly on building the industry’s most advanced yet intuitive online dashboard that serves as the heart of your wellness program. It‘s a place for participants to get an easy-to-understand snapshot of their health. A place they’ll find instantly involving and endlessly engaging. A place that encourages then to spend more time on the site, more often – thus increasing the likelihood of a positive change in their overall health.

Best of all, participants can use the dashboard to easily track their health progress. For

instance, your company may offer employees a discount on their insurance premiums when they earn a designated number of points by taking proactive steps to improve their health. Participants can complete many of those activities right from the dashboard, and they can keep track of their points too, allowing them to get a complete picture of their progress.

Our dashboard maintains a high level of engagement by providing content customized for participants based on the outcomes of their HRAs and screenings. Our

high-quality content comes from a library of thousands of articles by one of the nation’s largest providers of health and wellness information.

Our actions plans help our employers engage their population to gain a high percentage of healthy employees and dependents within their workforce.

“LOOKING AFTER MY HEALTH

TODAY GIVES ME A BETTER HOPE

FOR TOMORROW” -ANNE WILSON SCHAEF

A health risk assessment (HRA) is a health questionnaire, used to provide individuals with an evaluation of their health risk and quality of life.

HEALTH PROFILE

Health Risk Assessment (HRA) Module• The Meliora HRA is designed for adult

populations aged 18 to 65 years. The HRA

uses evidence-based guidelines and is

written at the eighth-grade level.

• A pediatric version for 6- to 17-year-olds is

also available.

• It is Health Information Products (HIP 1)

Certified by the National Committee for

Quality Assurance (NCQA) and complies with

the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination

Act (GINA).

Controlled Availability & IncentivesProgram settings determine when the HRA can

be completed and the incentive points that are

awarded for one or more of the following:

• Completion of the questionnaire

• Biometric results meeting client-defined

targets

Long & Short FormThe Meliora HRA is available in long and short form.

Clients can deliver both long and short forms to the

same population and can switch between versions

from year to year. Aggregate reports combine data

from both versions.

• The long form assesses current health

(including lifestyle behaviors, biometrics,

health status, and compliance with

recommended preventive health

screenings), chronic conditions, and future

disease risk.

• The short form delivers all the functionality

required to assess current health, including

biometrics, but omits chronic and future

disease risk assessments

Online Assessment (PC or Tablet)The online assessment uses conditional branching

logic to personalize and streamline data collection.

Data is saved automatically, and the participant

may stop any time and return to complete

the questionnaire at a later date. The online

questionnaire can be switched between English

and Spanish at any time.

When the assessment is completed, the responses

are locked before the personalized report is

displayed, preventing data manipulation. Optional

review mode delays display of the report until

biometric data has been entered or loaded from

file.

The Meliora HRA can be completed at a health fair

or biometric screening event using your tablet.

Scannable Bubble FormsThe assessment is also available for paper-and-

pencil completion using bubble forms, in English

or Spanish, that support standard scanning

technologies. Scanned data from paper forms

is loaded into our database and merged with

data collected through the online questionnaire,

providing a single database for reporting.

Biometric Data Four options are available for entry of laboratory

results and vital signs:

• Self-report by the participant using ranges

or numerical values.

• Entry by health coaches using our lab tool

option.

• Entry by screener using our lab tool option.

• Batch load from file. The load process

supports completion of the HRA

questionnaire before biometric data

is loaded and, conversely, load of the

biometric data before the HRA assessment

is started.

Participant Reports When the assessment is locked, participants receive

a personalized report, available in English and

Spanish. The report details health risks and lifestyle

behaviors, together with recommended actions for

health improvement. Summary results from the

previous two HRAs are displayed for comparison

with current risks.

A printable provider summary report is also

available, in English only.

Administrator Reports Management reports track HRA participation rates

and biometric screening results. Aggregate reports

provide an analysis of health risks, readiness-

to-change, and compliance with recommended

screenings.

• Program reports profile the population for

a selected service level and/or employer

group or subgroup.

• Trend reports show progress over time for

the population (all participants in each time

period) and the cohort (participants in both

time periods only).

Reports can be run by service level, employer group

or subgroup, and date range.

Batch Printing & Export Batch-printing functions support fulfillment of

member and provider reports. Batch-export

functions allow access to all questionnaire and

assessment data for custom reporting and data

sharing with partners.

Third-Party HRAs Organizations currently using a health risk

assessment may be reluctant to switch to a new

HRA vendor because of the valuable data pool they

have accumulated over time. The third-party HRA

data-load process allows an organization to take

advantage of the advanced data-management

facilities provided by the platform, while retaining

the value of historical health risk assessment data.

Third-party HRA data loaded into the platform is

merged with current HRA data collected using our

profile to provide:

• Coach access to longitudinal HRA data for

individual participants.

• Administrator access to consolidated

aggregate HRA data for outcome reporting

• Participant access to previous and current

HRA results within the member report

summary table for progress tracking.

Personal Health Record ModuleOur personal record is an integrated health

record that provides a longitudinal repository of

participant health data from multiple sources.

Data Integration Selected data elements collected using other

our platform modules, such as the health risk

assessment, are copied and stored in the health

record. They can be supplemented by data entered

directly into the health record by the participant or

health coach.

Data from third-party sources, such as laboratory

results and prescription refills, can be loaded into

the health record using standard batch processes.

Self-reported and coach-entered data uses SNOMED

and NDC codes to provide data portability; loaded

data retains the coding used at source.

Components Components of the health record include:

• Personal information including demo-

graphics, lifestyle, family history, and ad-

vance directives.

• Comprehensive medication record,

including Rx and OTC therapies.

Prescription refills can be loaded from PBM

data, if available.

• Medical history comprising conditions,

treatments, allergies, immunizations,

screenings, and office visits.

• Biometric results batch loaded directly

from source data, if available, and used to

populate the profile health risk assessment.

• Contact information for provider, pharmacy,

hospital, insurance, and an emergency

• Printer-friendly health record reports in a

variety of formats, including PDF and XML,

to allow portability and data sharing.
