2 OneHealthyOlympus Dear Olympus Employee and Family, BIG CHANGES ARE COMING TO THE OLYMPUS WELLNESS PROGRAM. Employees who wish to enroll in Olympus sponsored medical coverage for 2017 will have a choice: If you choose to participate in the 2016 Wellness program, you and your covered spouse or domestic partner will be required to meet certain health goals to earn a premium credit for If you choose not to participate in the program, you and your covered spouse or domestic partner will still be able to enroll in Olympus medical benefits, but at an increased cost to you next year. THIS IS A TRANSITION YEAR. All benefit eligible employees will still be able to earn a cash incentive for 2016, but will also be working towards a 2017 medical premium credit. Premium Credits will range from $250 to $800, annually. In order to execute our business strategies, Olympus needs engaged and productive employees. Living a healthy lifestyle is critical to employee engagement and productivity. At its core, the Olympus Wellness Program is designed to motivate and enable our employees to make healthier life choices that will benefit themselves and their families. Why the change? Each year, the cost for our Company to provide healthcare to employees increases by 6% to 10%. There are many factors that drive this cost increase, including higher rates demanded by providers, the use of more expensive technology, and more access to care by patients. Claim costs paid by Olympus are consistently rising. Even the healthiest person gets sick occasionally, and we don t want to charge more to an employee just because he or she needs medical care. We chose an approach that will lessen the impact on employees that make healthy choices and strive to manage their own health. What can I do? Please read through the information on the following pages to discover the requirements for participating in the Olympus Wellness Program. Be sure to keep an eye out for additional communications throughout the year. Join us as we work towards OneHealthyOlympus! Sincerely, The Olympus Benefits Team Benefits@Olympus.com 2 P a g e
