Painter said the idea to bring in Roizen started with the city's own wellness program.

"We've been so successful with it, we want to get the program rolled out for our businesses, to help them lower their health care costs," he said.

The Cleveland Clinic has also agreed to sponsor the breakfast, Painter said.
