Try It. Improve Your Health. Save Money!

Seeing is believing and that’s certainly the case with the Center for Healthy Living (CHL) on Purdue's West Lafayette campus. Our 2019 Open Enrollment survey showed that those who visit the CHL view it more positively — from providers and health programs, to ease and convenience. And that makes sense because sometimes you have to try something out before you know how helpful it will be!

We recently looked at how much employees spend on medical care and discovered an important trend: Those participating in CHL maintenance programs for hypertension, type 2 diabetes and prediabetes are actually lowering their costs annually.

CHL Outreach Program: Give It a Try

Because we believe so strongly in how the CHL can improve employee health, we are launching a new outreach program. The CHL health coaches (all registered nurses or dieticians) will be contacting employees about the CHL’s maintenance programs (hypertension, type 2 diabetes, prediabetes, asthma, etc.). You may be invited to participate in a FREE telephonic or face-to-face health coaching program. Plus, the CHL health coaches are a great resource to help you work toward goals like stress management, sleep, diet, exercise and more. You are not required to participate, but we encourage you to give it a try — it may change your health!
