TDH Partnership
HealthCareTN’s partnership with the Tennessee Department of Health (TDoH) is helping employers take a leading role in addressing diabetes and hypertension—two of the most significant drivers of healthcare cost and workforce health—through practical, evidence-based solutions that improve outcomes and reduce long-term risk.
How HealthCareTN Supports Employers
Through this collaboration, HCTN supports employers by:
- Implementing evidence-based programs such as NDPP, DSMES, and SMBP
- Advancing effective primary care strategies to improve prevention and chronic condition management
- Increasing awareness of social determinants of health (SDOH) and their impact on outcomes
- Delivering statewide webinars, employer toolkits, and convenings
- Launching employer pilots focused on chronic condition prevention and management, demonstrating strong engagement and measurable health improvements
The Impact
Employers are better equipped to reduce risk, improve health outcomes, and build more sustainable, value-driven benefits strategies across Tennessee.
