For many organizations, wellness programs are well-intentioned but underutilized. Spire is changing that. With the help of CoreHealth NOW, Spire empowers small and midsize employers to take wellness beyond check-the-box programs and into everyday engagement without burdening HR teams or overwhelming leadership.
The Challenge: Making Wellness Programs Work Across Diverse Clients
Located in Indiana, Spire supports clients ranging from 50 to 350 employees, across various industries and broker partnerships to build population health strategies. Each has unique needs, but one challenge remains consistent: HR leaders are busy.
“You can’t really fault them – they’ve got a lot on their plate,” said Kelly Fenol, Managing Director at Spire. “The key is to make it easy for them to say yes to wellness.”
For Spire, that meant finding a wellness platform that could deliver a consistent experience across clients while eliminating the complexity of day-to-day program management, making it easier to scale across multiple accounts.
The Solution: CoreHealth NOW as a Wellness Engine
Spire adopted CoreHealth NOW, CoreHealth’s pre-configured wellness program to streamline setup and increase impact. The program provides a ready-to-launch foundation including:
- Health Risk Assessments (HRAs) with personalized reports
- Monthly activity challenges with built-in leaderboards
- Educational health content and micro learning programs
- Real-time data dashboards for client-facing reporting
- Incentive points and rewards
This all-in-one approach means Spire can launch branded wellness programs in days, not weeks.
“The biggest win for administrators is how CoreHealth NOW automates the heavy lifting,” Kelly shared. “It creates, implements, tracks, and reports challenges with zero extra admin time. That keeps participation up without HR teams needing to manage the process manually.”
CoreHealth NOW has become the established wellness model for every wellness program Spire delivers. Instead of building from scratch for each client, they start with a consistent, proven platform that is already equipped with everything they need. This structure allows them to deliver value quickly while focusing their energy on driving engagement, not setup.
The Employee Engagement Formula: Simplicity + Leadership Support
While the technology provides the program framework, Spire focuses on one thing above all: making it easy for leadership and HR to support the program.
“They don’t have to participate in everything, but they can at least talk about it at town halls, or mention it in meetings,” Kelly noted. “Even small gestures from leadership go a long way.”
Spire supplies clients with communication templates, kickoff scripts, and ready-to-send messaging so wellness feels more like plug-and-play than a heavy lift.
They also help broker meaningful connections between program data and company priorities. Whether it’s reducing claims, improving morale, or aligning with DEI goals, Spire shows how wellness ties directly into business impact.
The Results: Action Over Intention
Since adopting CoreHealth NOW, Spire has scaled its services more efficiently and with greater client satisfaction. Clients report stronger participation, more consistent engagement, and most importantly, a wellness culture that feels integrated, not forced.
By empowering HR teams with automation and giving leaders a clear path to support, Spire helps organizations move from intention to action, turning wellness into a year-round, results-driven strategy.
“This is often an investment – if we help HR connect the dots for leadership, that’s when we really see buy-in and momentum,” Kelly said.
