Substance use, especially alcohol use, is often overlooked when it comes to employee benefits and workplace wellbeing programs. Fortunately, social and cultural awareness is growing around the connection between substance use and our wellbeing, our family and relationships, and even our professional lives. When substance use becomes a challenge, it can affect an employee’s wellbeing both personally and professionally. That’s why I’m proud to share the work and outcomes from LifeSpeak Inc.’s substance use solution, ALAViDA Substance Use, which was featured in this recent piece by BenefitsPRO. It talks about the true cost of binge drinking, a behavior shared by 61 million people in the United States, that costs employers $249 billion in annual health care costs and decreased employee productivity. I hope you’ll give the article a read and see what Terri-Lynn MacKay has to say about substance use and the LifeSpeak Inc. approach that is helping people change their relationship with alcohol and other substances. You can also download the full report about outcomes for ALAViDA Substance Use on our website.

VP of Risk Consulting @ iPlanRx | NPN #20642768; If what you thought to be true about providing affordable employee benefits was not...when would you want to know?
Customized benefits are becoming increasingly popular among employers, and for good reason! They address individual employee needs, enhancing satisfaction and retention. By allowing employees to choose benefits that best fit their personal and family needs, employers are potentially leading to better financial and health outcomes. This personalization can make benefits feel more valuable, as employees see a direct correlation between their choices and their well-being. It's a win-win situation for both employers and employees. Schedule 30 minutes with me to learn how to make this a reality for your business.#benefits #healthcare #choice #empower #personalization #satisfaction
