Weight Optimization

Medical weight management, with the follow-through it requires.

Medication has changed what is achievable in weight management, but it has not removed the need for assessment, monitoring, nutrition and muscle preservation. This program provides the whole picture rather than a prescription alone.

What it involves

  • Metabolic and nutritional assessment
  • Discussion of options, including medication where clinically appropriate
  • Attention to protein intake and preserving muscle
  • Regular monitoring and adjustment
  • Planning for what happens longer term

Coverage

Works alongside insured care

This program is delivered within a Monarch Health membership and covers uninsured services only. Any MSP-insured service provided independently by a physician is separate from Monarch Health and is not dependent on membership or provided on a priority basis. The uninsured components - assessment depth beyond what MSP covers, planning, coordination and ongoing monitoring - are covered by your membership.
