"In the current economic climate, the Life Information Center has become a leader in helping subscribers lower their out of pocket health care expenditures, avoid overuse of medications, and improve their health through lifestyle change. With higher deductibles and larger co-pays increasing annually, the Life Information Center is an unmatched resource to help families become better consumers of their own health care dollars." - Joyce Ramay, CEO Welcome to Life Information, Inc. Your 1st Step to Wellness!

Today more than ever, health care in America is realizing that future generations can live longer, healthier lives only when each individual assumes personal responsibility for their own well being.
Life Information's proactive approach attacks the core issues of wellness and empowers individuals to make positive decisions that lead to mental and physical well-being. To create a culture of wellness, you must first establish a foundation for permanent change. Lasting lifestyle change is the key to all successful wellness programs! Making healthy choices in one's life results in healthy behaviors and lower health care costs.
"Helping individuals change mindsets and live proactively is the mission of Life Information Inc."
American fast paced, performance based culture encourages individuals to live reactively. Getting individuals to exchange unhealthy habits for behaviors that lead to good health, less stress and lower health care costs is a monumental challenge. The Life Information Center encourages, challenges and supports individuals and family members to make a commitment to better living one step at a time. As achievable small steps lead to positive, recognizable results, the Life Information Center opens other avenues for lifestyle change to improve one's health and happiness.
The Life Information Center educates users so they have a full understanding of the direct correlation between lifestyle and good health. Studies show lifestyle change is almost twice as effective as medication when reversing people's risk for heart disease, diabetes, and other chronic health issues.
Diabetes treatment has a tremendous medical cost. With $1.00 out of every $5.00 health care dollars going to treat diagnosed diabetes, Why not change our system to focus on the prevention and successful management of diabetes through exercise, weight loss, and lowered stress.
Life Information's wellness approach builds a "CULTURE OF WELLNESS" by establishing the basis for ongoing lifestyle changes, as it: Enables individuals to identify the change process
Supports them through their personal development
Wellness is not a fad or trend. It's an ongoing process that affects individuals' mental and physical well-being. This correlation directly impacts the bottom line of all companies.
Diabetic employees health care costs are on average 13-times more than the annual costs of a non-diabetic.
Did you know that overweight and obese employees:
- File twice as many Worker Compensation claims than do normal weight employees?
- Generate medical costs that are seven (7) times higher than good health employees?
Your company's investment in Life Information's life management programs increases in value as it reduces future health care expenses and increases your financial well-being. Consumer driven health care depends upon giving people tools and information to manage their day-to-day health care costs. The "Life Information Center's" resources provide specific help to families and lowers their out of pocket expenses by avoiding unnecessary trips to the emergency room or doctor's office.
Because they're interdependent, it's no secret that productivity, growth and employee health go hand in hand. Absenteeism is directly tied to chronic disease. That's why you should examine the benefits of Life Information's 1st Step to Wellness.
Both the weekly communications and the "Life Information Center" encourage and produce lifestyle behavior changes that directly increase productivity and decrease absenteeism leading to lower health care costs.
Chronic disease represents two-thirds of all health care expenditures. Yet, 80% of all chronic disease is the direct result of three (3) preventable behaviors: Physical inactivity, Poor nutrition and overeating, Smoking
Wellness Programs improve your bottom line with each step taken to engage employees in healthier behaviors. Creating a culture of wellness starts by gaining full support from the highest level of management.
The success of any wellness program is COMMUNICATION. Starting with small behavior changes, individuals need consistent and frequent reminders that they are in charge of their own health through their lifestyle choices. That's the focus of Life Information's weekly emails. No other Wellness Program integrates Health and Wellness, Work/Life Issues and Behavioral Health material in one single, easily used self-help resource. When you combine educational materials and self-help resources with life-altering communications, you're well on the way to success in reducing medical benefit costs, improving productivity, and retaining your most valuable asset!
