Three causes of death and how your health insurance can help to prevent them.

The top 3 causes of premature death in the US are alcohol related deaths, tobacco related deaths, and poor eating/exercise habit related deaths. All of these are linked to personal choices. Today, health plans are willing to cover drugs and treatments used to help fight alcohol, tobacco, and eating/exercise related problems. Over 60% of all current health plans offer stop smoking programs, stress reduction, nutrition counseling, alcohol dependency help, substance abuse education, access to fitness centers, and overall exercise counseling. Insurance plans now realize it is difficult to fight alcohol, tobacco, and food dependencies. Consult your health insurance agent about more information regarding these programs.
