Over the past decade, the employer-employee relationship has been tested by relentless external pressures — and it’s buckling under the weight. Pandemic-era upheaval, rapid policy shifts, and technological disruption have driven both employers and employees into survival mode.
In that churn, trust has eroded. A 2024 Gallup study found only 19% of employees strongly agree that they trust the leadership of their organization, a 20% decrease from 2019.1
Primary care physicians and advanced practice professionals provide a gateway to better health. They enable and direct preventive care, which in turn plays a significant role in helping people avoid chronic diseases, reducing overall health care costs.
Those benefits are quantifiable. For example, the National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion reports that breast cancer screenings can reduce breast cancer deaths among 50- to 74-year-old women by 26% while promoting early diagnosis and reducing health care spending1.
Did you know that women make up 57.6% of the US workforce? As an employer, you can collaborate with your health insurer to support this population through maternal health resources.
