Validated Vendor Virta Gets WSJ Shout-Out
Virta Health just made history again, becoming the only diabetes vendor validated for both long-term results and real cost savings — and now featured in The Wall Street Journal for helping users maintain weight loss after GLP-1s. See why Virta stands alone.
Meet Our Three Newly Validated Solutions
By verifying health care vendors’ performance claims, we make it easier for purchasers to make more cost-effective, value-based decisions.
Congratulations to Flagler Health, DisclosedRx, The Volition Group on their recently awarded validations:
We are excited to announce the launch of the Benefits Engagement Survey Tool (BEST), a groundbreaking solution designed to transform how organizations assess and enhance employee engagement with benefit programs. Unlike traditional methods that often conflate participation with true engagement, BEST offers a precise evaluation, enabling you to distinguish between mere involvement and genuine appreciation of your offerings.
Key Features of BEST :
- Concise Evaluation: Employees respond to a brief three-question survey for each selected benefit program, ensuring efficient and meaningful feedback.
- Comprehensive Insights: Gain a clear understanding of which programs resonate most with your workforce and identify areas needing improvement.
- Cost-Effectiveness Analysis: Visualize engagement levels relative to program costs, empowering data-driven decisions to optimize your benefits portfolio.
By implementing BEST, you can enhance employee satisfaction, improve retention rates, and ensure that your investment in benefits yields maximum value.

15-Minute Webinar on the BEST Method
Yep. In quite literally 15 minutes, this Microwebinar will reveal how to measure the engagement of all of your programs. And even how to rank them in order of cost-effectiveness of that engagement. All with a simple, but powerful employee survey tool that quite literally takes 5-7 minutes to complete.
It often takes a lot of effort to make something easy, and that’s exactly what we’ve done. It’s taken us 5 years to get this exactly right, but it’s official now: we’ve obsoleted every other metric for ranking your programs’ engagement stats.
Don’t believe us? Think you have a better idea? There’s a million-dollar reward in it if you do. [SPOILER ALERT: You don’t.]
Since our Microwebinar is only 15 minutes long (plus 5 minutes for Q&A), we are offering multiple options for attending it:
Webinar: Hear from Noom on Breaking the GLP-1 Cost Cycle:
Healthier people. Lower costs. Smarter care.
GLP-1 medications are a game-changer in the treatment of obesity – a challenge impacting millions of U.S. workers. Yet, the high cost is a significant concern for companies looking to balance access with affordability. In this webinar, Noom Health breaks down the importance of GLP-1 medications and how they’re revolutionizing the obesity epidemic, but without the proper guidance and support, can mean the difference between healthier people and an unguided population taking medications that can have serious consequences, including increased costs for employers and health plans. The bottom line: you can’t cure an epidemic just by covering the cost of a medication. Learn more about the GLP-1 cost cycle, and identify ways organizations can provide affordable access to GLP-1s and other anti-obesity medications regardless of their coverage policies. Get insights on:
- – How the obesity crisis is affecting employers/health plans
- – The impact of GLP-1 compounds
- – How Noom Health can help you confidently manage GLP-1 costs and achieve long-term ROI

Tids n’ Bits with Linda Riddell
Things from the 1960s that you thought were gone: bean bag chairs, 8-track tapes, and measles. Measles may be making a comeback, according to a recent JAMA Network article: “At current state-level vaccination rates, measles may become endemic again; increasing vaccine coverage would prevent this.”
Nomophobia and neck pain. Nomophobics fear being without a mobile phone and even those without a phobia spend a lot of time in “text neck” position. Researchers found that the angle of your head when scrunched over your phone is linked to heart rate variability. The more you scrunch, the more your cardiac function is compromised.
