Description

Hypertension (HTN) affects nearly 50% of working-age adults and dramatically increases morbidity and costs. From a health equity perspective, HTN disproportionately affects people from disadvantaged communities. It is imperative that employers implement appropriate strategies to prevent, identify and manage HTN. Panelists will share current strategies and approaches to support effective HTN management.
