Our goals are to address the long-term risks associated with ineffective weight management, to reimagine the narrow and outdated cultural narrative around weight, and to empower our community with tools that will help them find self-acceptance and add years to their lives.

Reporting live from Employee Benefit News' #BenefitsAtWork 🎤 Day one was filled with inspiring conversations focused on optimizing benefits strategies with the employee experience in mind. #Obesity care is a critical piece of the benefits puzzle, and with the right partner, employers can unlock a path to better health for employees. ”No decision on weight care, is a decision—culturally we are getting to a point where we recognize obesity as a disease. It may be challenging to quantify the impact of healthier employees, but what matters most is that we do something to prevent them from developing comorbidities or needing surgery,” said Dr. Jon Larson, Medical Director at Found during a panel discussion on managing employees’ demand for weight loss drugs.

Our Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Rekha Kumar, M.D, M.S., spoke with Vogue about the rising trend of supplements being marketed as "natural GLP-1s" or "Ozempic alternatives" – and what consumers should know. This trend is also contributing to the growing demand for weight loss drugs, putting an emphasis on why expert clinical guidance is critical when thinking about partnering with a weight care solution as an employer or health plan.

Celebrities aren’t doctors. I spoke with Margaux Anbouba at Vogue to make it clear that: 🛑 I'm deeply concerned about the recent trend of supplements being marketed as "natural GLP-1s" or "Ozempic alternatives." 💊 Supplements ≠ Pharmaceutical GLP-1s. While some plant compounds may indirectly influence GLP-1 pathways or mimic some GLP-1 effects, healthy fats like wild salmon or avocado and soluble fiber could do the same thing. 👩⚕️Medical decisions should be guided by qualified healthcare professionals – Found is ready to help.

📅 We are one week away from seeing you at Employee Benefit News' #BenefitsatWork! Join us on Tuesday, September 17 at 2:55 PM PT as industry experts, Dr. Jon Larson, Medical Director at Found, Kara Boley, Population Health Management Consultant at USI Insurance Services, Stephanie Koch, SCP-SHRM, SPHR, CHVA, Director of Human Resources at Hendry Marine Industries, and Emma Fox, CHVA, CEO at E Powered Benefits, discuss how employers are navigating the growing demand for weight loss drugs. In 2024, organizations have already increased their health plan budgets by 5.2% as a result of GLP-1s. With 52% of professionals reporting a desire for weight loss drug coverage, employers face a critical decision–how to provide access and improve overall health without breaking their budgets. Learn more about the panel discussion here: https://lnkd.in/eNC_PNKU 📍You can also find us at booth #203 to continue the conversation on weight care.

New research suggests that nearly 60% of patients on GLP-1s stop treatment within 3 months–well before they’re able to see all of the potential benefits. Medication adherence, cost, and unclear ROI are among the many reasons employers are cautious about providing coverage for this class of drugs, but weight care doesn't have to rely on them. Alternative anti-obesity medications (AOMs) are paving a path for employers actively working to improve employees' health while enabling them to control costs. We sat down with Dr. Rekha Kumar, M.D, M.S., Chief Medical Officer, for a Q&A to gain insights into GLP-1 prescribing, AOMs, cost-containment strategies, and more.
