Improve efficiency, access, cost, and quality of care with Primus Virtual Care
Weight Loss and Real Time Virtual PT
get healthy initiative
Obesity is one of America’s most urgent health challenges. The CDC reports that more than 40% of adults live with obesity, nearly 1 in 10 with severe obesity, and the total cost exceeds $173 billion annually.
The National Institutes of Health has identified obesity as a top research and policy priority. Leaders like Robert F. Kennedy Jr. have called for bold, coordinated solutions to reverse this epidemic.
At Primus Healthcare, we are answering that call. Our Integrated Virtual Patient Weight Loss and PT Program unites physicians, physical therapists, professional trainers, AI engagement tools, and breakthrough therapies
Access to care is broken in both rural and urban America
The Primus Healthcare Integrated Virtual Patient Weight Loss and PT Program solves both problems — expanding access where providers are scarce
- In rural areas, 1 in 5 Americans live there, but only 1 in 10 physicians practice there. More than 60% of counties are shortage areas, and 24 million rural Americans still lack broadband access for telehealth.
- In urban centers, the problem is the opposite: ER wait times often exceed 6–8 hours, and specialty clinics face months-long waitlists. Staffing shortages push patients with chronic needs to the back of the line.
For Insurance Companies
For insurers, obesity is a financial and population health crisis. Costs exceed $173 billion annually, and comorbidities drive claims higher. Our program offers:
- Reduced hospitalization and ER visits by shifting chronic care to virtual management.
- Data-driven outcomes from integrated PT, training, and AI engagement.
- National scalability, aligned with NIH priorities and new CPT reimbursement pathways.
- Integration of ZepBound and Mounjaro to not only treat obesity but to lower diabetes incidence, cutting long-term costs. For payers, this program means healthier members and more sustainable economics.
