Why Health Insurance Companies Choose IWS to Reduce Claims & Boost Workplace Well-being.

In today's increasingly complex work environments, health insurance companies are under mounting pressure to do more than just process claims. They're expected to deliver meaningful support that improves employee health outcomes, reduces mental health insurance claims, and increases client retention. That's where Interpersonal Wellness Services Inc. (IWS) comes in.

For over 28 years, IWS has helped organizations transform their work cultures, strengthen resilience, and reduce workplace stress through evidence-based tools and frameworks. Today, we're proud to serve as a strategic wellness partner to health insurance providers seeking to go beyond traditional benefits by integrating proactive workplace wellness solutions.

1. We Help Insurers Reduce Claims Before They Escalate

Our proprietary Nine-Dimensional Wellness System (WIS®) identifies hidden drivers of stress, burnout, and relational breakdown—long before they result in disability or mental health insurance claims. Our clients use this data to intervene early and protect employee mental health, helping insurers reduce claim frequency and severity.

2. We Provide Rapid Workplace Recovery Support

Through our proven Intervene – Stabilize – Revitalize (ISR) Workplace Recovery Framework, we help insurers respond to client crises quickly and effectively. Whether it's toxic conflict, harassment, bullying, gaslighting, or post-merger chaos, our model is designed to reduce insurance risk, stabilize teams, and revitalize workplace culture—often within 90 days.
