The purpose of Module 3 is to discuss how one measures the total costs of the impact of health on a company. The module discusses the usual costs that are measured, such as medical and pharmacy claims costs, and also identifies those costs that are often not measured, such as absenteeism (sick leave, workers compensation and short- and long-term disability) and presenteeism (being at work but not working to full capacity). Module 3 identifies sources to obtain data to assist employers in understanding the full costs of poor health.
