Access to evidence-based obesity care is not just a medical issueโ€”itโ€™s a workplace benefits decision. Employers determine which treatments are covered under your insurance plan.

โœ”๏ธ If you want obesity treatment to be covered, start the conversation with your employer.
โœ”๏ธ Ask your HR or benefits manager if anti-obesity medications and related therapies are included in your plan.
โœ”๏ธ Advocate for comprehensive coverage, just as we do for diabetes, hypertension, and other chronic diseases.

Change begins when patients and employees speak up. Together, we can make access to care the standard, not the exception.

September is National Childhood Obesity Awareness Month.

The latest data shows that:

๐Ÿ‘‰20% of children and adolescents (ages 2-18) struggle with obesity
๐Ÿ‘‰The biggest increase in BMI is between the ages of 5-12 years old, especially since the Covid-19 pandemic
๐Ÿ‘‰Waiting for children to outgrow their obesity or to "grow into their frame" is a MYTH. Childhood obesity should be evaluated by a medical professional early as it is a complex condition

The Obesity Action Coalition has shared a video by Dr. Aaron Kelly which gives a great overview of childhood obesity and tips for parents on discussing childhood obesity and treatment options with their child's pediatrician.
