Employee Services: Omada wellness program expands offerings for Type 2 diabetes

Hello world

The CU Health Plan’s Omada program now has options for people who have Type 2 diabetes and are not currently taking insulin. When the program first launched, health plan members who already had Type 2 diabetes were not eligible to join, but that was recently changed.

Omada, a cutting-edge digital behavioral transformation program, is dedicated to the fight against chronic illnesses such as Type 2 diabetes and heart disease. Merging science, technology, education and community, the innovative program is designed to help build sustainable healthy habits. 

If you are at risk for Type 2 diabetes or heart disease—or if you have Type 2 diabetes—and you’re a CU Health Plan member, the Omada program is available to you at no cost. The program provides tools, resources and smart technology at no out-of-pocket cost, including:

  • A wireless scale pre-synced to a password-protected account
  • A specialized health-related curriculum
  • On-demand access to a personal health coach
  • A like-minded online peer network for support

Omada recently relaxed the requirements for program acceptance, so even if you have applied in the past, we encourage you to reapply. Take control of your health by completing the one-minute risk screener.
