Lose weight and prevent diabetes

Being overweight is one of the top risk factors for prediabetes. According to the CDC, about 96 million American adults – more than 1 in 3 – have prediabetes. Of those with prediabetes, more than 80% don’t know they have it. Prediabetes puts you at risk for developing Type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.

The good news is that lifestyle changes, including losing weight, can help you prevent or delay Type 2 diabetes and other serious health problems. Omada is a personalized program that gives you the tools and support you need to help you lose weight, lower your cholesterol and blood pressure, reduce your risk of getting diabetes, and improve your overall health – all through an easy-to-use website or app.

1Omada’s Diabetes Prevention and Weight Health programs are available to eligible members ages 18 and over. Virta’s Diabetes Reversal is available to eligible members ages 18 and over with type 2 diabetes, if offered by your plan. Each program has an application and screening process to determine member eligibility. Some health conditions will exclude members from participation.

2If offered by your plan, Virta is covered at no additional cost to eligible members. Check your benefit plan documents in your secure account at CapitalBlueCross.com or call Member Services at the number on the back of your ID card to confirm coverage. If you receive health coverage through your employer, you can also contact your employer to confirm eligibility. Eligible members with type 2 diabetes can participate in either Omada Diabetes Management or Virta Diabetes Reversal, if offered by your plan. You can switch from one program to the other, but you cannot participate in both at the same time.
