New White Paper Deep Dive: The Obesity Epidemic

New White Paper Deep Dive: The Obesity Epidemic

Presented by Health Action Council and UnitedHealthcare

Join us for an exclusive webinar hosted by Health Action Council and UnitedHealthcare to learn the results of a unique study based on self-funded employers and more than 224,000 lives. This webinar will explore obesity and how it impacts population well-being and is a significant driver of cost.

Study Highlights:

• Employees living with obesity:
  
  • Cost plan sponsors 2.3 times more in healthcare expenses compared to their peers
  • Experience a 66% increase in out-of-pocket expenses and heightened rates of chronic conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, and certain cancers
• There is a disproportionate impact of obesity on Millennials, women of childbearing age, and children of parents with obesity
• Without action, healthcare costs for HAC sponsors alone could surge by an additional $500 million by 2030

During this webinar, we will share our findings as well as discuss actions employers can take to improve the health and well-being of their population.
