CIGNA Adds Health Assessment for Expats
CIGNA International, which provides benefits to U.S. expatriates, announced that it now offers employers an international health assessment for their globally mobile workforce. The health assessment is a preventive tool that helps identify expatriate employees' health risks early before they can lead to illness and potentially jeopardize an employee's assignment.
Expatriates can complete the interactive, multilingual, multicultural health and wellness questionnaire at www.CIGNAenvoy.com. The voluntary and confidential assessment can be localized and customized with questions relevant to specific geographic regions. By the end of 2010, it will be available in 20 languages.
Using the appropriate questionnaire for their language and location, employees answer a series of questions about their health habits and lifestyle. Immediately upon completion, they receive an electronic report identifying their top health risks along with an evaluation of their health status and recommendations for improving their health and well-being.
