Do their addresses put your employees at risk for surgery?
(Grand Rapids, Mich. - June 9, 2011)
Smart Health Facts put excellent, affordable health care within reach
As part of our mission to provide all people access to affordable and excellent health care, our primary concern is your employees' health and safety. That's why we've added online "Smart Health Facts" about more than a dozen surgical procedures to priorityhealth.com.
Are your employees in a "surgery zone?"
Treatments for many conditions vary from one region of the country to another. In many cases, your employees may be more likely to have surgery just because they live in a certain part of Michigan, where surgical treatments are more prevalent.
Our online Smart Health facts provide your employees with information to discuss with their doctors to get the best health results. They describe surgery, its risks and many treatment alternatives that may help your employees avoid the inconvenience and expense of surgery. And they link to expert, in-depth information as well as our online surgery decision-support tool that’s helped thousands of Priority Health members. Topics include:
- Back surgery
- C-section
- Colonoscopy
- Ear tube surgery
- Gallbladder surgery
- Hip replacement
- Hysterectomy
- Knee arthroscopy

- Shoulder replacement
- Tonsillectomy
