Employer Benefits
Mobile cardiac screening not only can save the lives of thousands of employees, they
also save businesses hundreds of thousands of dollars each year.
Less absenteeism:
Early detection usually require less extensive medical treatment and thus far fewer
days away from work.
Greater productivity:
Cardiac Arrest Screening takes just 10-15 minutes. In the same time as an average coffee
break an employee can have a potentially life-saving evaluation. If he/she scheduled the
same test in a hospital, he/she could be gone from work for at least two hours.
Reduced short-term and long-term disability pay:
Early detection can help employers avoid or reduce disability expenses.
Lower insurance premiums:
Workers compensation, health and life insurance premiums are all based on usage.
Reducing usage will reduce costs dramatically.
Enhanced Employer/Employee relationship:
Many appreciate the opportunity to participate in health screenings,
like Heart Squad, while at work.
