On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared novel coronavirus disease 2019 (otherwise known as COVID-19) to be a global pandemic. As we reflect on the past year and the path forward to recovery, the BHC is pleased to launch a special three-part podcast series on “Building Resilience in a Post-Pandemic World.” For our first episode, we will be discussing the role social determinants in driving health outcomes, the impact of COVID-19 on health disparities, and opportunities for businesses to address these factors for greater organizational and individual well-being.


We are pleased to be joined by Dr. Courtney Walker, pharmacist by training and Medical Account Director for Novo Nordisk, where he has supported employer, coalition, and trade accounts by sharing scientific data around diabetes, obesity, and associated chronic comorbid conditions for the last 18 years.
