Not only is Lifestyle Redesign beneficial for patients, it also helps reduce the cost of care. The program has been estimated to save over $250,000 in healthcare costs, as a previously spotlighted study found.

Patients who received Lifestyle Redesign care for diabetes in the study were found to have significant decreases in total emergency department visits and overall hospital days, which accounted for the majority of healthcare cost savings.
