Why Us?

Obesity is a disease, and it’s a costly one. Excess weight is not just a personal issue. The obesity epidemic costs U.S. companies an estimated $73 billion per year (Finkelstein et al, 2010). Researchers also note that obese workers file twice the workers’ compensation claims, have seven times higher medical costs from those claims, and lose 13 times more days of work from work injury or work illness than non-obese workers (Ostbye et al, 2007). The clinically proven Medi-Weightloss® Program works. More than a third of incoming patients have lowered their blood pressure by participating in the program. In addition, nearly half of incoming patients have or are at risk of type 2 diabetes. By participating in the program, many were able to reduce signs of the disease (Guzman et al., 2013). Additional benefits of investing in the wellness of your employees include: • Decrease workers’ compensation and disability claims by as much as 30% • Decrease short-term sick leave by up to 32% • Save $3-$6 for every $1 invested in wellness • Reduce healthcare costs by 20-55%
