Corporate employers plan to spend an average of $594 per employee on wellness-based incentives within their health care programs this year, according to a new employer survey1 conducted by Fidelity Investments® and the National Business Group on Health (NBGH). This marks an increase of 15 percent from the average of $521 reported for 2013, and is more than double the average of $260 reported five years ago. The largest increase was among companies with fewer than 5,000 employees, where the per employee average climbed to $595, one-third higher than the average of $444 per employee in 2013.
