Subject: participation rates

A colleague of mine is doing some information gathering on participation rates of insurance company sponsored wellness reimbursement programs.  Any literature, or an estimate participation rate that you've seen/experienced as an example, would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Subject: SIU System Down

Folks,

 

For those of you who were trying to either send messages via the various listservs yesterday, OR were trying to access various websites, SIU had a MAJOR power outage due to a phenomenal lightning storm that hit us Wednesday night.  It hit the university sub-station and impacted literally everything on campus, including email servers, web pages, etc.

 

Things have been fixed (hopefully) and you should have service today.  Let me know if you have trouble accessing any web pages.

 

 

Mark
