Health Risk Assessment (HRA) & Interest Survey

The HRA is a widely used screening tool for employers. It is one of the first steps in a multi-component health prevention and promotion program.


The interest survey is integrated into the HRA. This section of the survey allows participants the opportunity to answer questions regarding their employer's health and well-being program. It also functions as a referral process to our internal Panhandle Public Health District programs.



After the HRA is completed, the overall survey results will be e-mail, along with a Health Risk Assessment (HRA) and Interest Survey Overview. Only aggregate data is provided to the employer.

Box Butte General Hospital

We enjoy living our lifestyle in western Nebraska, but resources can be hard to come by. Fortunately, PWWC has provided us with valuable local resources, as well as in-person and virtual programs for both our committee and employees. We particularly love the Annual Wellness Conference, which never fails to rejuvenate our committee members!
