Chronic health conditions: prevalence, impact and the role of condition management

One in four people in the US has two (or more!) chronic conditions. Lost productivity due to sick employees missing work costs US businesses $530 billion per year*. 

It’s time we talk about the current state of health in America. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), about one in seven (30 million) people have diabetes and many don’t even know they have it. And nearly 40% (90 million) are obese. These serious health issues are impacting our entire workforce. So, let’s face it…if your wellbeing program is not yet focusing on Condition Management (CM), it’s falling short.
