Your Health Matters: Resources for Chronic Conditions

Health Chronic Conditions

Taking care of your health is vital, but research can be a daunting task when you need to know facts quickly. Nextep is here to ensure you have what you need, right at your fingertips. We’ve gathered info, tools, and resources all in one place to assist you with prediabetes, high blood pressure, and weight management. 

We understand that in an ever-changing world, you may not have the capacity to think about your health. Nonetheless, health concerns don’t magically go away, especially for those with chronic conditions. It’s even possible you have new health problems brought on by stress and uncertainty. 

Our chronic conditions resource page has direct links and instructions for Aetna members to benefits they may not know they have available, like:

  • Aetna’s Health Knowledge Base
  • A 24-hour nurse line
  • Health management programs
  • Discounts to equipment + services

There are also resources and education info for anyone not using Aetna health insurance. 

We know employees’ health matters to employers, but encouraging a healthy lifestyle can be time-consuming, especially when trying to run a business. We compiled info for employees, but we also had managers in mind. We included a manager toolkit with tips and materials for the workplace.
