Men-U was created in 2004 and offers a series of events that take place throughout the year designed to educate men and their families on the importance of men taking charge of their own health.
On average, men in the United States die six years younger than women and have higher death rates for all 15 leading causes of death. Getting men to schedule annual check-ups is at best like pulling teeth. A large percentage of men have only limited contact with physicians and the health care system as a whole. Men not only fail to get routine check-ups or preventive care, but often ignore symptoms or delay seeking medical attention when sick or in pain. These poor health habits take their toll — beginning at early ages and rising significantly as males reach retirement age.
That's why INTEGRIS Health has developed Men's Health University.
