A new report has ranked which states in America are healthiest overall — and which are staggering behind, CNN is reporting. The study was conducted by the United Health Foundation, which is a nonprofit division of United Health Group. United Health Group also owns the insurance company United Healthcare and Optum. The study has been conducted annually for 29 years and takes many factors into account.
Thirty-five factors are considered in total, and they fall into these categories: the behaviors that people are choosing in their lifestyle; the community and environment where a person lives; the public policy that happens at a state level; and the clinical care that people receive when they go to the doctor and the hospital.
