  NOVATO, CA (September 6, 2005) — Enwisen, the leading vendor of web-based HR, Benefits and Total Compensation communications solutions, today announced that it has introduced the industry’s most comprehensive communications and decision support suite to help Employers maximize employee engagement, evaluation and adoption of Consumer Choice Health Plans.  
 
  Decision Support and Communications Tools Key to Increasing Participation  
  Analysts and healthcare consultants agree that Consumer Choice Health Plans, such as HSA / HRAs and High Deductible-based plans, can significantly reduce the cost of healthcare premiums for both employers and employees, and that effective communications and decision support tools are critical for helping employees become smart healthcare consumers.  
 

In fact, a recent Hewitt study maintained that, “Health plan comparison charts, provider directories, health cost summaries and health spending estimators were found to be the most effective tools to boost enrollment in consumer-driven health plans. Forty-six percent of those who used a tool chose a different medical option this year, and that percentage increased to nearly 60% when two or more tools were used.”

 
  Most experts also agree that to realize the potential savings from CCHPs, a minimum 25% participation is required, although companies not using sophisticated communications tools rarely achieve more than 10-15% participation during their initial high deductible program launches.  
 

However, using Enwisen’s CCHP tools, for example, Enwisen customer Zions Bank achieved a beyond expectation 34% adoption during the program's initial enrollment period.
