Understanding our support for muscles, bones and joints

21 August 2023

 

Good musculoskeletal health is an important component of maintaining a person’s functional abilities throughout life. Musculoskeletal conditions can affect people of all ages. Prevention, early detection and treatment can enable people to live in good health.

With over 20 million people in the UK suffering from a musculoskeletal (MSK) condition, and 30 million working days lost a year as a result, the scale of the impact on individuals and businesses is significant.

In this webinar, AXA Health’s Head of Specialist and Practitioner Relations, Sarah Taylor is joined by Lucy Cassidy from HBSUK who deliver MSK services for AXA Health members, to discuss the importance of MSK conditions in the UK and how AXA Health and HBSUK are transforming the way we treat those conditions.
