In this episode of "Healthcare on the Rocks: Employee Benefits with a Twist," Dr. Nora Lansen, Chief Medical Officer at Elektra Health, discusses an often overlooked but crucial aspect of women's health: menopause. Dr. Lansen, a board-certified family physician with extensive experience in women's health, sheds light on the complexities of menopause and its impact on women in the workplace.

Dr. Lansen explains that menopause is not just a moment in time, but a journey spanning 20 to 25 years of a person's life, including perimenopause and post-menopause. The conversation reveals staggering statistics from Elektra's workplace survey, such as "one in three women reported that menopause negatively impacts their work performance" and "20 percent of women have left or considered leaving a job because of menopause symptoms."

Dr. Lansen describes how Elektra Health is working to "smash the menopause taboo" by providing comprehensive, virtual care for women experiencing menopausal symptoms. The episode explores various ways employers can support their menopausal workforce, from hosting educational events to offering Elektra's services as a covered benefit.

Key takeaways from the episode include:

  • Menopause is a long-term journey, not just a single moment, affecting women for 20-25 years
  • Common menopausal symptoms like brain fog and memory issues can significantly impact work performance
  • Many women feel unsupported by their employers during menopause
  • Employers can benefit from supporting menopausal employees, who are often at the prime of their careers
  • Addressing menopause care can help prevent other health issues that become more prevalent during midlife
