Hooper Holmes Health and Wellness to Present at the 2008 Integrated Care Summit

Mr. Behling's presentation entitled "Effectively Implementing Biometric Screenings" will discuss the importance of wellness screenings, as they are often the first interaction a participant has with the disease management process. While using vendors to complete screenings is a logistical necessity, creating a consistent quality experience and a positive first impression for participants is crucial. Mr. Behling, along with Wendy Boehme, Director, Benefits, Noranda Aluminum, and Frazer Buntin, Senior Director, Operations, Healthways Inc., will outline the best practices from the viewpoints of an employer, a disease management organization and a wellness screening provider.

The three-day conference is taking place from September 8-10, 2008 at the Westin Diplomat Resort inHollywood, Florida. For more information please visit www.dmaa.org/ics08/index.asp. In addition to Wednesday's presentation, Hooper Holmes will showcase its capabilities at exhibition booth #302.
