Addressing Critical Gaps in Employee Weight Management for Millions of Americans

The partnership addresses a significant challenge identified by leading employers: while lifestyle changes remain the foundation of managing weight, traditional approaches often lack the consistent monitoring and data integration required to achieve and maintain goals. With major tech companies already deploying 9amHealth’s solution, the addition of Smart Meter’s cellular scales provides seamless, automatic data collection that eliminates barriers to consistent tracking.

“We’re seeing tremendous demand from large employers who want to move beyond BMI-only assessments and provide their employees with easy-to-use technology to support better weight management,” said Casey Pittock, CEO at Smart Meter. “Our cellular scales integrate perfectly with 9amHealth’s clinical approach, providing real-time data that allows physicians, pharmacists, and dietitians to deliver personalized care.”

Enhancing Clinical Care with Real-Time Data

9amHealth’s evidence-based program combines physicians, pharmacists, and registered dietitians trained in obesity care, available virtually across all 50 states. The integration of Smart Meter’s cellular scales enhances this care model by:

  • Automatic Data Transmission: Eliminating the need for manual weight logging, reducing friction in the patient experience
  • Real-Time Clinical Insights: Enabling care teams to monitor progress and adjust treatment plans promptly
  • Comprehensive Metabolic Monitoring: Supporting early identification of conditions like prediabetes and diabetes
  • Seamless Integration: Connecting directly with 9amHealth’s clinical platform without requiring additional apps or devices

“Nearly 10% of new members joining our weight health program are found to have previously undiagnosed prediabetes and diabetes,” said Dr. Avantika Waring, MD, Chief Medical Officer at 9amHealth. “Smart Meter’s cellular scales provide us with the consistent, reliable data we need to identify these health risks early and deliver personalized interventions that are more significant than just weight loss.”

Breaking Down Barriers to Participation

The device, data, and service agreement specifically addresses socioeconomic challenges that have historically limited participation in employer weight management programs. By removing the complexity of manual tracking and providing technology that works regardless of geographic location, the solution serves remote populations with varying:

  • Cultural preferences around health monitoring
  • Technical comfort levels
  • Geographic limitations
  • Previous experiences with weight management programs

Proven Results with Major Technology Companies

Leading technology companies have already implemented 9amHealth’s comprehensive program, recognizing weight care as an entry point to broader health support for employees with comorbidities. The addition of Smart Meter’s cellular scales strengthens these deployments by providing:

  • Consistent engagement through automated tracking
  • Reduced administrative burden on HR teams
  • Enhanced clinical outcomes through better data quality
  • Improved employee satisfaction through simplified user experience

Meeting Employees Where They Are

Unlike traditional programs that require employees to repeat previous lifestyle interventions before accessing additional care, the 9amHealth solution meets each person where they are in their health journey. Smart Meter’s Cellular scales support this philosophy by providing immediate, judgment-free data collection that integrates seamlessly with comprehensive care plans ranging from lifestyle coaching to GLP-1 prescriptions and bariatric surgery referrals when appropriate.
