Biometric Screening<br />
<strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>West</strong> <strong>Palm</strong> <strong>Beach</strong><br />
January 18, 2011<br />
In addition to the subjective data collected from the PHAs, we encourage the <strong>City</strong> to also<br />
collect objective health in<strong>for</strong>mation through biometric screenings. Through the screening<br />
process, we are able to collect the following data on each member:<br />
� Height, weight and BMI<br />
� Blood pressure<br />
� Cholesterol – HDL, LDL, total, and ratio<br />
� VLDL<br />
� Triglycerides<br />
� Glucose<br />
We can also screen <strong>for</strong> additional metrics at your request including iron, sodium, potassium,<br />
chloride, carbon dioxide, calcium, phosphorus, uric acid, total protein, albumin, globulin,<br />
A/G ratio, alkaline phosphastes, ALT, AST, bilirubin, LDH, GGT, hemoglobin A1C, TSH,<br />
PSA, Hepatitis B, and cotinin/nicotine. We can conduct finger stick or venipuncture draws<br />
depending on the metrics that the <strong>City</strong> would like to track and measure. Once the lab data<br />
is received by the clinic, the member’s personal health report will be updated with the<br />
screening results and the employee will be notified via email.<br />
First Onsite works with national screening vendor, eHealthScreenings (EHS), to facilitate the<br />
biometric screening events. EHS is a leading provider <strong>of</strong> comprehensive wellness screening<br />
services, specializing in the facilitation <strong>of</strong> on-site biometric data collection and transfer <strong>for</strong><br />

businesses. EHS has a national network <strong>of</strong> several thousand lab locations, 250 affiliated<br />
<strong>of</strong>fice locations, and over 5,000 paramedical staff members.<br />
First Onsite can provide screening activities in the clinics as well as through deployed<br />
screening teams to multiple sites. EHS is highly experienced in conducting a variety <strong>of</strong><br />
screening activities across multiple sites simultaneously. For example, we are just<br />
