ROI of Super Noggin

Some benefits of cognitive fitness training are measurable.  Controlled clinical trials, some as short as just a few weeks, have shown improvement in subjects who embark on a program of brain fitness and healthy lifestyle choices.  Longitudinal studies such as the Religious Orders Study show an association between intellectually stimulating activities and a reduced rate of cognitive decline.

The renewed hope and sense of empowerment felt by people who learn that it is possible to grow new brain cells (not just lose them!) and to strengthen connections between existing brain cells can’t be measured – but it can be felt!

Wellness ROI:

• keeps people independent longer
• reduces need for direct-care workers
• contributes to satisfaction and engagement of retirees

Financial ROI

Seeking new ways to reduce direct and indirect health care costs, employers and insurance companies are now looking to brain fitness as a key component to fighting rising health care costs. Some insurance companies like Penn Treaty American are already reporting a reduction in claims after offering brain fitness exercises to their long-term-care insurance customers. Providing your members with important brain fitness knowledge enables them to live healthier, more independent lives.

The tools Super Noggin utilizes have been clinically proven to enhance cognitive abilities, reduce insurance claims, and improve lives:

• 5-year predicted reduction of medical expenditures by 3-4% (Wolinsky, 2009)
• Improves performance on activities of daily living (Edwards, 2002)
• Reduces risk of onset of depressive symptoms  by 38% (Wolinsky, 2009)
• On average an improvement of memory scores equivalent to approximately 10 years. (Smith, 2009)

Price of Super Noggin

Years were spent in the research and development that make Super Noggin the most comprehensive brain fitness program available today. But because the developer, LEAF Ltd., is a private foundation and 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, the price of the program can be kept low.

For one low price you receive a one-year license to offer Super Noggin at your site, all program materials, exclusive online resources for instructors, follow-on support, and 2 days of training for your staff to become Certified Super Noggin Instructors. Training will be conducted at your location by one of our expert trainers. Call us to discuss pricing options or email lynn@leafltd.org.  We’ll work with you to make it affordable. Our toll free number is 866.937.0999 extension 5.

Price for Independent Instructors:
An annual fee includes the one-time 2-day training at one of our locations, all program materials, exclusive online resources and updates, and individual follow-on support. As a Certified Super Noggin Instructor, you may lead the program at any facility that has a current site license and negotiate your own rates to lead the Super Noggin program. You also have the option of obtaining site licenses to enable you to teach at multiple locations of your choice. Some facilities may be willing to reimburse you for all or part of your costs. To learn more about the many options for private instructors, call our toll free number 866.937.0999 extension 5.

Additional costs:
When the Super Noggin program begins at your location, each participant will need a Super Noggin Notebook, which includes a full year’s worth of healthy brain activities and a personal tracking system. Notebooks are ordered from Super Noggin for $10 each, plus shipping.

Defraying costs:
You have the option of charging participants for the program and/or for the Super Noggin Notebook. Our experience is that there is often a greater commitment to the program if participants have paid for it.
