We are living in an epidemic of chronic pain, with new cases occurring more often among adult Americans than with diabetes, depression or high blood pressure. As a result, employers are seeing more sick days, lower employee productivity and satisfaction—and, ultimately, higher medical costs and lower rates of well-being. Solving this persistent problem requires more than just a single program. Employers need to take an integrated approach to ensure their people are getting help earlier and throughout their care journey.
