Abstract

Employee Assistance Programs (EAP) can expand their business value by creating connections with other employee health and benefit programs within the same work organization. The Organizational Health Map identifies potential partners within each of the three segments of the health care cost continuum model (Preventive Care; Acute Care; and Chronic Care). The EAP can offer resources, referrals, and behavioral health expertise to help make these programs more effective. Collaborating with Human Resources is needed to facilitate integrating the EAP into other programs. Finally, the EAP can consult with leaders of the organization to advance company-wide health and work culture initiatives.
