Diabetes prevention,

The Cost of Inaction
1 in 3
American adults has prediabetes. Most don't know it. In your organization, that's one in three employees, members, or patients on a path toward type 2 diabetes.

Why This Matters
Prevention is the most undervalued investment in modern healthcare.
Diabetes accounts for $327 billion in annual U.S. healthcare costs, one in every four healthcare dollars spent. Without intervention, up to 30% of people with prediabetes will develop type 2 diabetes within five years.
And yet the Diabetes Prevention Program, the only federally recognized intervention has shown to reduce type 2 diabetes risk by up to 58%, remains drastically underused. The question for partners isn't whether to invest in prevention. It's how quickly you can do it.
