Tivity Health Leads National Strategy to Improve Health of Older Rural Americans
NASHVILLE, Tenn., Aug. 14, 2019 Tivity Health® (Nasdaq: TVTY) is hosting its third annual Connectivity Summit on Rural Aging to promote healthy aging for rural Americans. The Summit will include an action-focused agenda that engages stakeholders from community and faith-based organizations, government, academia and the private sector to improve the health and well-being of rural seniors.
This year’s Connectivity Summit is focused on the conditions in which people live, work and age – also known as the social determinants of health – exploring how these factors impact the health of older Americans living in rural areas and solutions that can mitigate their impact. More than 11,000 Americans are aging into Medicare every day, and nearly 1 in 4 live in rural areas.
