Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an Autoimmune Disease Where the Body's Own Immune System Attacks the Brain and the Spinal Cord.

Multiple Sclerosis Causes Relapsing Periods of Weakness in an Arm or Leg and Can Even Cause Temporary Blindness.

Most People Are Initially Diagnosed Between the Ages of 20 and 40.

About 914K People in America Are Living with Multiple Sclerosis... That's 1 in Every 286 Adults.

Therefore, a Statistically Average Employer-Sponsored Health Plan with 1,000 Adults Would Have 3 Member with MS.

Inpatient Hospital Treatment for Multiple Sclerosis Includes IV Steroids or Plasmapheresis.  Cost of These Hospitalizations Are Allowed Amounts Ranging from $10K to $100K+ Per Hospitalization.

There are Outpatient IV, Injection and Pill Medications that Can Be Taken Chronically to Minimize Multiple Sclerosis Flairs.

Gilenya and Tecfidera are Two of the More Common Pill Medications for MS.

People with MS Often Have to Take Additional Medications for Bladder Problems, Depression, Muscle Spasms and Other Manifestations of Their Condition.

A Key Way Employee Benefits Professionals Can Help Plan Members is to Ensure They Have Meaningful Case Management and/or Healthcare Navigation Relationships with at Least Monthly Interactions.
