After over ten years of strategy, Johns Hopkins Medicine has seen a jump in worksite health for employees.
Johns Hopkins used the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Worksite Health ScoreCard (CDC WHSC) tool for their evaluation. According to a press release, “Johns Hopkins Medicine’s score rose from 68.5% in 2016 to 88% in 2024 (an improvement of 19.5%).”
Additionally, “Ten Johns Hopkins Medicine member organizations, including its hospitals and primary care network, participated in completing the ScoreCard between 2014 and 2024. ScoreCard data from member organizations were tracked and analyzed annually, both on an internal basis across the organization and externally using a CDC ScoreCard database.”
Johns Hopkins Medicine used the results “to tailor initiatives based on the ScoreCard results. Employee health and well-being programs that were evaluated include blood pressure health, lactation support and occupational health and safety.”
The study is published in the New England Journal of Medicine Catalyst.
