[MCOH-EH] Wellness Consultations

[Hudson, T. Warner]

Occupational Health at UCLA will refer our folks who quality for a program we call WorkStrong; to get personal 20 weeks of fitness coaching at the UCAL recreation centers, registered dietician 10 visits and on site Staff and Faculty Counseling Center for life coaching. Participation is voluntary and paid by the WC claim; cleared by the OM doc or specialist. Works great and not a conflict of interest but an alignment of interest as we are helping the employee get healthier and this helps them in many ways.

Hello,

I was curious if any providers offer in-person wellness consultations to their employees, regarding issues like smoking cessation, weight loss, diabetes management, etc.  If so, how have you addressed potential conflicts of interest with other roles within occ health (reviewing FMLA requests, ADA accomodations, etc.)?  Thanks in advance,
