YouFirst Health Risk Assessment (HRA)
The YouFirst Health Risk Assessment (HRA)
from Greenstone Healthcare Solutions is available on the Internet. Derived from the
industry standard paper-based YouFirst HRA, the Internet version of YouFirst adds a new
dimension of immediacy, Health Risk Assessment without compromising privacy, and Internet
information security. Showing an individual the direct impact of lifestyle, and health
habits enable Greenstone to project the individual's life span and calculate the effect of
chnages in health behavior. YouFirst HRA is personal. It's motivational. And now, online,
the picture it draws of an individual's present and potential health is even more vivid
and compelling... because it's immediate. How many years will be added to your life if you
quit smoking? Change the answer on your online questionnaire and find out instantly. If
the YouFirst HRA can tell individuals volumes about their health risks, it can do the same
for the insurer, the managed care provider, the corporation, any organization concerned
with the health and health care costs of their populations. In the aggregate, HRAs become
a sensitive instrument for assessing a population's health risks and projecting costs, so
organizations can prioritize health intervention initiatives such as stress-reduction
programs and smoking-cessation counseling. Such prospective measures help to minimize
risks before they consume costly medical-care resources.
