We Can Reduce Obesity in the Latino Community!
Signing up for health insurance not only provides you with coverage, it’s also good for living a healthy lifestyle! When the Affordable Care Act was passed, it included an emphasis on disease prevention. Insurance plans must now cover a long list of preventive services at no extra cost. Some of these services include screenings and counseling for obesity, Type 2 Diabetes and high blood pressure. And, these services are more important than ever, given the high rates of diabetes in Latino communities, as the image below shows.
