According to a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) report, investing in employees' health may lower the costs of healthcare and insurance claims. Employees suffering from obesity, smoking, and diabetes, pose a heavy burden on medical insurance companies to settle frequent and often high-cost healthcare-related claims. A healthy workplace program has the potential to keep both employees and employers in a low-risk category as it focuses on the overall health at workplaces and targets unhealthy employees, ultimately reducing overall health insurance costs. According to the RAND Corporation report, a lifestyle and disease management program helps employers reduce average healthcare costs by US$ 30 per member per month (PMPM). In addition, employees participating in the disease management program managed to save ~US$ 136 PMPM with a 30% reduction in hospital admissions. The RAND Wellness Program Study claims that lifestyle management can reduce health-associated risks such as smoking, obesity, and lack of physical activity. Thus, an effective workplace wellness program can lower an individual's hospital admission claims and encourage them to opt for clinical preventative services. Johnson & Johnson's Health and Wellness Program revealed that medical costs decreased annually by ~US$ 225 per participating employee through its policy, environmental, and educational components for addressing health risks, such as high blood pressure and cholesterol.

Oligoscan is an innovative and noninvasive diagnostic tool offered by Wellness Company, which provides an intracellular synopsis of people's health. This rapid and pain-free test evaluates the bioavailability of trace elements, vitamins, minerals, and heavy metals in people's body tissues in real time by analyzing the intoxication present in the body. The product utilizes spectrophotometry to assess the absorption and reflection of light-beam sent across the hand dermis to calculate different amounts of trace elements in human tissue. Thus, the introduction of such high-tech wellness platforms is likely to create lucrative opportunities for the well-being platform market players in the coming years.
