(prHWY.com) September 24, 2012 - Irving, TX -- Irving, Texas - Workplace wellness programs may lead to improved employee health and reduced costs for employers, according to an independent analysis provided by Interactive Health Solutions. Interactive Health Solutions focuses its wellness program on identifying those who may be at risk for core conditions like asthma, coronary heart disease, chronic obstructive lung disease, diabetes and hypertension to control or mitigate those conditions through early detection and prescribed therapies. Conditions like these can drive up
