NEWPORT NEWS, Va., Sept. 4, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Huntington Ingalls Industries (NYSE:HII) announced today that it has awarded a contract to QuadMed, a national leader in employer-sponsored onsite healthcare. QuadMed will manage and operate HII's family healthcare centers for the company's Ingalls Shipbuilding and Newport News Shipbuilding division employees and their families.

"We are excited that QuadMed will make convenient, high-quality healthcare even more accessible to our employees and their dependents," said Bill Ermatinger, HII corporate vice president and chief human resources officer. "QuadMed's commitment to strong patient-provider relationships and patient confidentiality is evident by their 98 percent patient satisfaction rate. It is our hope that the availability of these healthcare centers will contribute to a robust and enhanced culture of health and wellness among our employees and their families."

The healthcare centers, scheduled to open in 2015, will be located near the shipyards. The centers will provide comprehensive primary care services that focus on prevention, wellness, early intervention and chronic condition management. These services, which include pharmacy, radiology and laboratory services, will be available to non-represented employees and their dependents who are covered by the Anthem consumer-driven or preferred-provider plans.

QuadMed operates employer-sponsored health centers for companies across the country, including Briggs & Stratton and STIHL, Inc.

"We are pleased to be partnering with Huntington Ingalls Industries on this very important initiative," said Sue Buettner, president of QuadMed, "Working together, our model of care provides employees and their families the resources, tools and support needed to become more engaged in their own health, a key component for Huntington Ingalls Industries in their journey to build a culture of health and wellness."

HII's health centers are part of a new benefits strategy designed to optimize employee health and wellness options. In addition to offering healthier food choices and physical activity support, HII is offering employees access to Teladoc, a program that provides employees with access to board-certified physicians via telephone, mobile application or computer. HII is also offering a discounted rate for healthcare to salaried employees who attest that they do not use tobacco.
