Update: 9am did follow up after this post as they described below and allowed me to schedule a visit with a provider in a timely manner. I hope this is just a temporary issue as they grow and experience higher demand. I will update my review as I experience the service, and would be thrilled if the service is a legitimate preventative health service as described and not just a ploy by United to discourage me and create beaurocracy to prevent me from using standard medical care. Stay tuned... My insurance company, United Healthcare, is forcing me to go through this company for GLP-1 instead of working with my PCP and specialists. Despite spending weeks filling out their surveys and sending them more and more labs, sleep apnea and doctors reports documenting my conditions and co-morbidities, it takes them an average of 7 days to respond to messages, they have not assigned me a care plan, and won't connect me to a doctor or schedule a meeting for me. Their only purpose seems to be to create hurdles to discourage me from seeking weight loss or treatment, and I can hardly seem to get anyone to speak with me or help me at all. When they do it is a generic response to eat more fiber or some useless generic videos. I am serious about weight loss and would be happy to follow their program but am really frustrated that United is forcing me to use this third party that seems completely understaffed and possibly set up simply to convince me not to seek medications and interventions that could save my life after losing family members to these diseases.
