Corporate Synergies is pleased to announce that your medical benefits carrier, CIGNA Healthcare, has teamed up with HopeLab, a non-profit organization that combines rigorous research with innovative solutions to help young people with serious and chronic illnesses improve their health and quality of life. Their first joint initiative involves offering teens and young adults with cancer a FREE computer video game called Re-Mission™.
WHAT THIS MEANS TO YOU AS AN EMPLOYEE
If you or any young adults in your family are affected by cancer, CIGNA HealthCare is providing you, free of charge, an industry forging video program to help you face the challenges of the disease. Re-Mission, rated “T” for Teen by the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB), is the first video game scientifically proven to improve health-related outcomes for young people with cancer.
By playing this game, trial research has shown the following benefits:
- Young adults complied with their treatment more consistently than those who did not play the game
- Playing increased their cancer-related knowledge and gave them a greater sense of power and control over their disease
WHAT SHOULD I DO NEXT?
Anyone living with cancer may order the game, so call Corporate Synergies at 1.866.CSG.1719, or click HERE so we can assist you in obtaining a copy.
