HealthWorks

What HealthWorks does

HealthWorks is an occupational medicine and workplace wellness provider operating as a division of Centra Health, headquartered at 1920 Atherholt Road in Lynchburg, Virginia. Founded in 2009, it serves employers across Central Virginia with a single-site clinic offering same-day appointments and a "Continuum of Care" spanning pre-employment screening, work-injury treatment, wellness programs, and return-to-work coordination. The team's combined 80+ years of occupational medicine experience and 120+ years of healthcare experience is positioned as a core credentialing asset.

The company delivers three integrated service lines: Occupational Medicine Services (pre-placement testing, physical exams, ergonomic assessments, acute work injury care), Wellness Services (proactive health and well-being programs), and an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) for mental health and related support. Services are billed directly to employers or via workers' compensation channels for injury-related care, with pricing negotiated on a contract basis rather than published.

HealthWorks operates an enterprise B2B go-to-market, targeting manufacturers (Cardinal Glass, Belvac, Boxley, CertainTeed, Glad Manufacturing, Bausch+Lomb, US Pipe, Alliance Industrial, DeltaStar, Aerofin, Flowserve, Framatome), aerospace and defense (L3Harris), aviation (Buffalo Air), technology (CloudFit), healthcare (Abbott Labs), and public-sector and education customers (City of Lynchburg, Bedford County, Appomattox County Public Schools, Sweet Briar College). Disclosed outcomes include an 88% rate of patients returning to work with no lost days and 48% returning to full duty immediately, which the company uses as primary value-proposition evidence. The unit operates within Centra's broader integrated healthcare network and is not an independently funded or venture-backed entity.

Direct peers

• Medcor: Occupational health clinic operator providing on-site and near-site injury treatment, drug testing, and telehealth triage for employers across the U.S.; competes head-to-head for workplace injury and screening contracts.
• WorkCare: National occupational health services company providing on-site and near-site clinical services, injury care, and wellness programs to employers; competes for the same employer contracts with multi-site delivery capability HealthWorks currently lacks.
• Crossover Health: Employer-sponsored integrated health platform delivering primary care, occupational health, mental health, and wellness services to enterprise clients — directly analogous service mix to HealthWorks' continuum of care.
• Premise Health: Largest direct-to-employer onsite and nearsite health provider in the U.S., offering primary care, occupational health, wellness, and EAP to large employers — overlapping directly with HealthWorks' full continuum-of-care model at enterprise scale.
• Concentra: Largest U.S. occupational medicine provider (a subsidiary of Select Medical), operating 540+ occupational health clinics nationwide offering employer-focused work injury care, physicals, and drug testing — directly comparable service model to HealthWorks at vastly greater scale.
• Marathon Health: Employer-sponsored primary care and occupational health network operating health centers for self-insured employers, with similar return-to-work, pre-placement, and wellness offerings targeted at the same buyer.

Emerging players

• TotalWellness: Provider of on-site and virtual biometric screenings, wellness programs, and flu shots to employers; overlaps with HealthWorks' Wellness Services product line as a complementary or substitute vendor in employer wellness RFPs.

Regional players

• Nova Medical Centers: Occupational health provider focused primarily on Texas and surrounding states with occupational medicine, injury care, and physical therapy services — comparable model and customer profile to HealthWorks, but serving a different geography.

Others

• Centra Health (parent): HealthWorks' parent non-profit health system serving Central Virginia; not a competitor but the strategic and operational backbone that supplies referrals, shared clinical resources, and brand to HealthWorks.

Broad incumbents

• U.S. HealthWorks (predecessor brands): Once the largest U.S. occupational medicine chain, acquired by Concentra/Select Medical in 2018; represents the consolidated incumbent competitive benchmark HealthWorks faces from national employer clinic operators.
