Women — they’re the heart of your company. Investing in their total well-being is investing in their success, and yours. Improved recruitment, retention and productivity is just the beginning. Our offerings meet women’s unique needs to help them stay healthier at every stage.

Menopause is more than a hot flash. It’s a total health experience.

Millions of women go through menopause every year. Yet there’s a significant care gap around menopause health.* Most women don’t seek treatment due to stigma and 46% aren’t prepared for this stage. Providers receive limited menopause training, so diagnosis and treatment may take longer.

 

Why it matters: Changing hormone levels impact whole health, including her heart, bone and mental health. We’re committed to supporting women during this stage.

  • Virtual and in-person appointments with MinuteClinic board-certified providers and licensed therapists trained to discuss menopause symptoms and treatment
  • Menopause-trained care managers to guide members to resources and support
  • Trusted, expert menopause care through virtual in-network specialists at Gennev or Midi
Add-on support

Proactive education

Preventive care to help her live healthier today, and for a lifetime

The right care at the right time matters. Yet 42% of women put off preventive care* due to cost, time and competing priorities. We cover screenings, well-woman care and immunizations to support women’s health needs, year after year.

Care management when it counts

Many chronic conditions are more common in women, such as Alzheimer’s, depression and osteoporosis.* Or women may experience certain conditions differently.

 

We address these differences to help women get the right support at the right time. And we can customize programs for your employees’ specific needs.

 

Our programs include:

Chronic and acute care

Support for more than 35 chronic conditions, including heart disease, asthma and cancer, which can impact women differently.

Cancer support

Trusted resources and information to transform cancer care and support members through their oncology journey.

Diabetes management
