Weight management program now available for members

We’re pleased to share that a new weight management program is now available to eligible members. Our goal is to support members who are seeking help with weight management and to provide easy access to effective tools and resources. This program is available at no cost to members aged 18 and older who are overweight or obese (BMI of 25 or higher) and enrolled in a commercial fully insured plan. The weight management program will also be available to self-funded groups at an additional cost. This new weight management program is made possible through our collaboration with Teladoc Health. 

Once enrolled, members receive a smart scale, a personalized action plan, and ongoing expert coaching and support throughout the program. By downloading the Teladoc Health app, members can:

• Track food, activity, and weight
• Message a coach for guidance
• Share reports with their doctor
• Snap a photo to log meals
• Set goals and track progress
• Get personalized eating tips

To get started, members can visit TeladocHealth.com/Begin/MGBHEALTH or call 800-835-2362.
