EXECUTIVE/PERIODIC MEDICAL EXAMINATION

Introduction

Executive/Periodic Examination is a cost effective means of protecting valuable human resources. Healthy employees contribute more to the success and productivity of your firm than any other single asset.

Good health is essential to the maintenance of each employee’s earning power so that they and their family may enjoy the full benefit of his/her employment without the loss of income and without the financial burden of a disabling disease. By instituting an active program, your Company can reduce the severity of disease and the direct costs of medical and insurance premiums.

A Preventive*PLUS physician and the employee’s physician work together to keep the patient well. Neither is a substitute for the other because the Preventive*Plus physician advises the patient how to keep well and detect unsuspected illness, while the employee’s physician concentrates on restoring health when illness does occur.
