Read About CEO’s Interview on Trends in Diabetes and Excess Mortality
Read about Humaculture’s CEO’s, Steve Cyboran, ASA, MAAA, FCA, CEBS, interview with Life Annuity Specialist featured in Diabetes is Killing More Americans Than Ever Before. Steve explains the trends in diabetes over the last 40 years. The rate of diabetes almost quadrupled from around 3% in the 1980s to 11.3% in 2023. Deteriorating health is a contributing factor to elevated health costs, disability rates, and mortality.
The good news is that there is quite a bit insurance carriers and employers can do to stem the tide and help People become healthier to the benefit of the insured and the Organization’s bottom line. Contact us to discuss how.
