This article by Dr. Rebecca Over is currently featured in Seattle Business magazine and talks about how employers can help stop the diabetes epidemic and why it makes sense to invest in preventing and managing this disease. Her article is currently in the online version of the magazine and will be printed in the February, 2012 issue.

Dr. Over’s article gives employers vital information on how they can assist in the halt of the diabetes epidemic by getting their employees screened through the Living Well Alliance™. The Living Well Alliance is a partnership between Pacific Medical Centers, Premera Blue Cross and the American Diabetes Association to bring diabetes education into the workplace. The mission of The Living Well Alliance is to provide free work-place based diabetes screenings and education programs to companies and employees in the Puget Sound region.
