- Title
A cure for sick days.
- Abstract
This article discusses the Quality Dividend Calculator, a free online interactive tool offered by the U.S. National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) intended to help employers with higher-quality healthcare plan reduce employee sick days. The tool aids employers in estimating how many of their employees will be likely to have one or more of eight key health conditions, including asthma, chicken pox, depression, diabetes, heart disease, hypertension, pregnancy and smoking. The calculator determines how many enrollees are likely to be diagnosed with a certain condition as well as the quality of treatment they would be likely to receive from three different categories of health plans.
