Employer investments in well-being remained consistently strong, even when confronted with unprecedented high health care costs. This signals employers’ unrelenting commitment to employee well-being. As with other health and well-being investments, employers entered into a period of reassessment of their existing partners and programs and sought to streamline benefits and recoup greater outcomes with robust solutions. Employers leveraged data to drive decisions to optimize their offerings, including the adoption of data management platforms that allow for seamless aggregation of data across vendors for greater insights, access and control of data, as well as increased ability to evaluate existing and novel vendors.

Informed by discussions among members, we developed comprehensive resources and guides and convened both virtual and in-person meetings to discuss these well-being topics in depth. Topics covered included highlighting multidimensional well-being strategy approaches and initiatives and how to harness the power of managers.
