What is Form Health?
Form Health is a virtual medical weight-loss program available to Workday Cigna and SimplePay Health medical plan enrollees (ages 18+) that provides expert, science based care for patients with obesity or who are overweight. Each patient works one-on-one with a dedicated clinical Care Team to develop a personalized weight-loss plan that addresses behavior change, nutrition, physical activity, and—when medically necessary—an FDA-approved prescription for medication.
All care is virtual, including regular video visits and messaging with your Care Team, along with tracking tools and educational resources in the Form Health mobile app. All Form Health patients receive a connected scale (at no cost to them) to track their progress.
Form Health also requires that you must have a primary care physician and must have visited them within the last 12 months.
Contact the Form Health clinical Care Team for more information: schedule@formhealth.co or 617-648-8137.
How is Form Health different from working with my own doctor?
At Form Health, you will work one-on-one with an expert weight-loss physician and a Registered Dietitian who specializes in weight-loss. The Form Health program is delivered entirely through telehealth. You’ll have regular video visits with your Form Health physician and Registered Dietician, support from your team through messaging, and access to educational tools through the Form Health app.
The Form Health app makes it simple for you to track your progress. You’ll have access to tools like weight tracking, food photo journaling, and educational resources. Weight tracking is made simple with a connected scale that is provided by Form Health at no cost.
Will a weight-management prescription that I receive from a physician unaffiliated with Form Health be covered?
Any new weight-management prescriptions—with the exception of those prescribed as part of treating type 2 diabetes—are only covered by Workday’s health plans if prescribed by Form Health.
I am a type 2 diabetic. Will I be required to use Form Health to obtain my GLP-1 prescription to manage my diabetes?
No, your prescription can be filled as usual. However, you’re welcome to use Form Health services to assist you with weight management if you’d like.
If I have already lost most or all of the weight I needed to lose, should I still enroll with Form?
Form Health may still be a great program for you. Form supports Workmates when they are in active weight-loss but is also available for patients who may need support after they’ve lost weight.
If you’ve achieved your weight-loss goals and you are taking a GLP-1 anti-obesity medication, you may register at formhealth.co/workday.
If you have achieved your weight-loss goals and are no longer taking a GLP-1 anti-obesity medication, please reach out to the Form Health support team to support your onboarding at schedule@formhealth.co or 617-648-8137.
