BOSTON — Form Health announced the launch of a diabetes care program that expands its physician-led obesity treatment platform into a single, integrated cardiometabolic care solution for employers across the United States.
The new program provides personalized care for employees living with Type 2 diabetes and prediabetes, including oversight from physicians certified by the American Board of Obesity Medicine, support from registered dietitians, and medication management when clinically appropriate.
The expansion reflects growing demand from employers seeking a more unified approach to cardiometabolic health rather than maintaining separate programs for weight management and diabetes care.
Diabetes affects more than 30 million Americans, and roughly 90 percent of individuals with Type 2 diabetes are living with overweight or obesity. Form Health said its clinical model focuses on addressing obesity as a key driver of cardiometabolic disease progression while helping employers manage long-term healthcare costs.
“For far too long, employers have been left to piece together costly obesity and diabetes programs without solutions that actually work,” said Evan Richardson, founder and CEO of Form Health. “We built our obesity care model to provide that clarity, delivering guaranteed ROI and industry-leading clinical outcomes. Now we’re extending that same proven model to diabetes. We are giving employers the chance to uplevel the support they offer their employees, providing responsible, medical care, not just more behavioral hoops to jump through. This solution is a single, integrated way to manage cardiometabolic health, grounded in science and delivering results they can see and trust.”
The diabetes program is built on the same clinical and technology platform used in Form Health’s obesity care offering. Care teams include physicians, advanced practice providers, and registered dietitians who follow condition-specific treatment pathways while using integrated data systems to track patient progress and adjust treatment.
The program incorporates connected devices and digital monitoring tools, including glucose tracking, hemoglobin A1C monitoring, and nutrition data, giving clinicians a real-time view of patient health.
Form Health said the model applies a population health approach to detect, stratify, intervene, and measure outcomes using integrated clinical data and key diabetes metrics. Employees with diabetes or prediabetes can enroll in the program without needing to meet specific body mass index thresholds.
The company said the approach is designed to close care gaps and produce measurable health outcomes while delivering predictable returns on investment for employers.
Cardiometabolic conditions such as obesity, Type 2 diabetes, and prediabetes are among the largest drivers of healthcare spending for employers and health plans. Form Health said these conditions respond to similar treatment fundamentals, including nutrition, physical activity, behavioral health support, and medication when appropriate.
Florencia Halperin, M.D., MMSc, chief medical officer at Form Health, said the program is designed to move beyond traditional coaching-based models.
“Many solutions in this space focus on coaching or looking backward at data. Our model embeds medical decision-making, prescribing, and continuous oversight directly into the benefit so employers can move beyond participation metrics and toward measurable improvements in health outcomes and total cost of care; and so patients can rely on Form as their partner in long-term cardiometabolic health.”
