Your employees are your most valued asset. And, one of the best ways to keep your workforce healthy and productive is to bring low cost, personalized health care directly to them. This can be accomplished by offering an on-site health & wellness center at your company, or for smaller employers, using economies of scale and joining other employers in a shared near-site center.
