Wellness Council
Official statutory text
Each county or city-county health department may establish a
Wellness Council to develop a wellness program for its employees.
Participation in the program shall be available to all full-time
employees. The Wellness Council shall establish determining factors
in order to monitor achievement of and maintenance of healthy
lifestyles with the ultimate goal of reduction of claims and
subsequent reduction of costs for health insurance.
Each county or city-county health department may establish a
separate fund to be designated as the "Wellness Program Fund". The
Wellness Program Fund shall be a continuing fund, not subject to
fiscal year limitations and shall consist of all monies received by
the Wellness Council through general county funds and through
grants, donations, contributions and gifts from public or private
sources. Monies from the Wellness Program Fund may be used for
incentives to encourage participation by employees and for costs
related to the operation of the Wellness Council.
The Wellness Council shall track the number of participants, the
cost of insurance premiums, and expenditure of funds on an annual
basis and report findings to the board of county commissioners or
the city-county board of health at a regularly scheduled meeting in
January. All reporting shall be in strict compliance with all
privacy laws.
