Workers doubt health info from employers
The millions of dollars and countless hours employers spend on health and wellness campaigns may be falling on deaf - and distrusting - ears, according a survey released today by J.D. Power and Associates.
The firm, generally known for its auto rankings, released today its first-ever National Health Insurance Plan Satisfaction Study, which surveyed 10,552 consumers on their satisfaction with their health plans.
Among the questions asked: Which of the following do you trust the most when it comes to advice about how to stay healthy and how to get the best healthcare? Not surprisingly, a large majority cite their doctors, with 70% naming their primary care physician and 31% saying the specialist they see the most. However, just 2% trust employers most -- well behind online health articles (22%), their health plan (12%), the government (8%) and even none of the above (6%).
