State of Heart Health 2021: Reversing the Effects of the Pandemic on Your Workforce

The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the adoption of technology as never before. But while it’s been good for screens, it’s been bad for screenings as tests to diagnose heart disease have decreased by nearly two-thirds. At a time when heart disease is already the world’s No.1 killer, there is growing concern that an increase in already prevalent risk factors could make us weaker, sicker, and more expensive.

The good news? Heart disease and its risk factors are highly preventable. This session will show how you can take advantage of today’s digital-first landscape to engage your team to make healthy lifestyle changes that reduce heart disease risk factors, support condition management, and help reverse the effects of the pandemic.

As an attendee of this webcast, you will learn:

  • Who wins with good heart health — the economics of a heart healthy workforce and the eye-opening return on investment from digital health solutions.
  • To take a comprehensive approach to heart health — digital-first doesn’t mean digital-only: the importance of leveraging both digital and traditional care channels.
  • What effective engagement looks like — meeting workers where they are to encourage healthy change and increase access to care from anywhere.
  • Where to start — how to identify employees at high risk for heart disease and remove barriers to help them self-manage.

Who should attend: Benefit and HR leaders.
