Success: Shane

“I have a family history of diabetes, heart disease, and obesity, and I found myself going down that path. incentaHEALTH became my coach. The reward levels acted as goals. When I’d hit one level (i.e. 10% weight loss), it was a big deal to me and made me want to work to achieve the next level.”


Business Impact

Our employees have gotten on board, many of them champions and promoters of the program, and our organization has adopted health and wellness into our culture. In 2016, we did not see an increase in medical insurance premiums, which can be attributed to our employees’ adopting healthier behaviors. I’m proud of our organization’s wellness success. They are definitely one of the leaders of the corporate wellness movement in Arkansas.”
