Background and How it Works

What are the Weight Ahead Recommended Programs?

Weigh Ahead recognizes that overweight or obese patients need the accountability of regular office visits with their medical care provider to sustain these lifestyle changes. Weigh Ahead recommended programs include:

• An acute phase, medically supervised weight loss plan
• A long-term behavior modification weight-maintenance plan
• A Web-based, proprietary software system that manages every aspect of patient care and program delivery that easily integrates into your network.

These programs:

1. Greatly improve the well being of overweight or obese patients
2. Provide hospitals and physician practices an additional service that treats each patient's weight individually; and
3. Delivers additional revenue for the hospital or physician practice

Acting as consultants, Weigh Ahead identifies suitable weight-loss programs that can be easily implemented into the existing infrastructure of a hospital or doctors' practice.
