Taking Aim at Chronic Diseases: How Mercury Insurance is Tackling Diabetes

Mercury Insurance's well-being lead, Sandra Szocs, was tasked with two priorities: tackling chronic diseases and improving access to care for the ~5,000 employees of one of the nation’s largest auto insurance companies. To meet these goals, Sandra implemented the first clinically-proven treatment to sustainably reverse type-2 diabetes without drugs or surgery. This session will address how Mercury Insurance used innovative treatment providers and inventive communication strategies to influence hard-to-reach employees, and to improve the health of some of their costliest employees. After completing this session, participants will be able to: (1) Evaluate which metrics are most important when addressing type 2 diabetes and metabolic health, (2) Understand how these metrics relate to your organization’s population health management and financial bottom line, and (3) Explain to stakeholders in your own organization how Mercury reshaped their well-being culture.
