The past three decades have seen a dramatic rise in the percent of the population diagnosed with chronic disease such as diabetes and hypertension. The incidence of these health conditions, compounded with other serious health issues, including obesity and stress, continue to increase year over year. They are eroding our nation’s overall health status and driving health care costs steadily upward at unsustainable levels. Reducing the avoidable costs, while simultaneously addressing the natural and unnatural causes associated with these conditions, is critical in meeting the twin challenges of promoting affordable health care and fostering continued economic growth. We have a choice: continue along the pathway of the status quo in the workplace and community or alter it by modifying our behaviors while focusing on optimizing people, productivity and performance.
Join us as together we both review and consider the power and potential that comes though emerging, collaborative and innovative approaches and solutions that are driving the much-needed change in today’s trends while simultaneously setting a new course of improvement for individuals, companies and our communities alike.
