Belvidere School District Will Open Employee Wellness Center

The Belvidere School District will open a health and wellness center for its employees July 10 in a district building at Sixth Street and East Avenue.  

It will be operated by Activate Healthcare and provide several services to employees who accept the district's insurance program, the Rockford Register Star reports.

Unlimited primary care services, annual health assessments, health coaching, and generic medications are included at no cost. 

Officials hope the clinic can put a dent in the district's annual $8.5 million in insurance costs.  Winnebago County and the City of Rockford have opened similar wellness centers for their employees.
