Video Shares Successes Companies Can Achieve by Leveraging Cerner On-Site Health Center

By

The COVID-19 pandemic has challenged employers to find new ways to engage employees in their overall health and well-being.

With 25-30 percent of employees projected to work virtually throughout 2021, combined with a heightened need to help people live their healthiest, virtual care is essential.

Anuva Health™ is Cerner’s newest concept in workforce health. With locations in Malvern and West Chester, Anuva Health™ is designed to provide a convenient, connected health care experience by offering in-person and virtual-health services to employees and their dependents. The investment and benefits are shared among a group of employers.

The above video shows how the Southern Maryland Electric Cooperative (SMECO) has leveraged a Cerner on-site health center and virtual services to manage the health and well-being of its workforce. Cindy Rauner, SMECO’s vice president of human resources, shares the successes SMECO has achieved with its on-site health center strategy. She also reveals how the team quickly mobilized virtual visits as part of its strategy, a trend likely here to stay.

“We have an older population among our employees, and we also cover retirees on our health insurance,” she said. “So, workforce health is extremely important to us because we want to help not only reduce healthcare costs but help employees and retirees meet some of their health and wellness needs.”

Since working with Cerner to launch an on-site health center in 2014, SMECO has been able to provide a wide array of services to its employees and retirees, including health coaching, physical therapy, and (most recently) virtual health services amid the pandemic. Furthermore, SMECO has experienced financial success with its claims remaining steady year after year.

“We felt like Cerner was the best partner to help us achieve a lot of our (goals),” said Rauner. “We’ve been a partner since 2014, and we’re happy to keep it going.”
