Alight Cancer Guidance addresses two critical issues, inequity in access to top cancer expertise and support, and the rise in new and late-stage diagnoses. For example, populations in rural areas see 12% higher mortality rates from cancers that can be prevented by screening compared to those in metropolitan areas and 41% of employers expect to see a rise in late-stage cancers in 2023 due to missed cancer screenings in 2020 alone (an estimated 9.4M). With targeted identification and outreach, Alight Cancer Guidance provides the urgently needed, trusted guidance and personalized support to employees facing any type or stage of cancer.

With Alight Behavioral Health Guidance, organizations can address the behavioral health crisis that is impacting lives across the country and the key barriers that stand in the way of participants finding the right care and the support they need to continue healing. The service connects individuals and families to Alight’s resources with behavioral health expertise, who will work with them to help them better understand their symptoms, any diagnoses, and potential next steps. Participants will receive explanations of treatments, medications, and provider types that might be options, while finding quality providers and facilities specialized in their needs. Alight will also collaborate and coordinate with partners across the employers’ benefits ecosystem.
