Chronic diseases affect 6 in 10 American adults, and 4 in 10 live with more than one of these conditions. Diabetes alone is an epidemic that drives 1 in 4 health care dollars spent, and disease mismanagement drives these costs higher and productivity lower.
Chronic diseases – and diabetes, in particular – are significant cost drivers for health plans. Are companies inadvertently adding to these costs through their health plan design? What’s more, are employers inadvertently exposing themselves to fiduciary liability exposure through these same design flaws? Attend this session for a panel discussion of these questions and more.
