The Greater Philadelphia Business Coalition on Health is partnering with the American Medical Association and the Jefferson College of Population Health to prevent diabetes in our region and nationally. The CDC's National Diabetes Prevention Program is a proven, highly-cost effective, evidence-based strategy that can be implemented with minimal effort, and can have huge results.

In this one-hour webinar you will learn:

• What is the National Diabetes Prevention Program (NDPP)?
• What do we know about its effectiveness in preventing diabetes for at-risk employees?
• How can an employer implement the NDPP as an on-site or virtual program?
• How does the NDPP's pay-for-performance model help to ensure ROI?
• What has been the experience of GPBCH employers who have already implemented the program?

Speakers will include:

• Dr. Neha Sachdev, Director of Health System Relationships, American Medical Association
• Shannon Haffey, Director of Systems and Payer Strategies, American Medical Association
• Krista Yoder Latortue, Executive Director, Family Food
• GPBCH employer members who have implemented the NDPP
