Absenteeism can have a severe impact on the workplace. The CDC reports that absenteeism in the U.S. costs employers $225.8 billion annually in productivity losses. The most common reported reasons for missing work are illness, injuries, medical appointments, childcare and eldercare with the leading cause being chronic illness. More than 50% of American adults suffer from at least one chronic condition like hypertension or diabetes, while 25% have at least 2 or more!

Due to these staggering statistics employers are being forced to roll out higher deductible health plans, in turn resulting in employees having to always pay more out-of-pocket. Employees are then left with less frequent medical consultations, worsening health and decreased satisfaction with their health benefits. Most employees don’t fully understand or have knowledge of how to successfully navigate our healthcare system. Managing their health not to mention the health of their family and loved ones takes time, concentration and efforts away from your company and their productivity. We can help!
