A recent survey finds nearly 42 percent of employers with 200 or fewer staff members have some sort of disease management (DM) program.
That’s a huge increase from four years ago, when just 28 percent of smaller employers offered such programs.
There’s more to come, too. Fifteen% of respondents that didn’t currently have a disease management component to their medical plan hope to add one by 2011.
The highest-demand disease management (DM) programs are for diabetes, asthma and heart disease.
