In my experience, wellness programs are a reaction to Obamacare. Insurance companies can't deny you for a pre-existing condition. So they increase the rates for everyone (effectively a penalty for everyone.) Then for the few who jump through the hoops required, they get an "incentive" which really penalty forgiveness.
