Oshi Health

Did you know? Gastrointestinal diseases are more common—and costly—than many employers realize. Digestive health issues like inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) affect up to 70 million Americans each year—that’s twice the number of people living with diabetes (34.2 million). 📊 The impact on healthcare costs is staggering, with GI diseases racking up $141 billion annually in direct healthcare costs in the U.S., surpassing the costs for heart disease ($113 billion) and mental health disorders ($99 billion). 💸 Despite this, GI conditions often fly under the radar when employers design their benefits packages, leaving a significant portion of their workforce struggling in silence. It’s time to change that. At Oshi Health, we’re on a mission to transform GI care by providing high-touch, multidisciplinary treatment with the goal of helping patients achieve lasting symptom control. Join us in raising awareness and bringing Oshi’s virtual GI center of excellence to the workplace. 🔗 Learn why you may be missing these costs and how Oshi Health can drive meaningful outcomes and savings within your population: https://lnkd.in/ewiqVNb2 #DigestiveHealth #EmployeeBenefits #OshiHealth #WorkplaceWellness

Thrilled to share that Christie Morrison, one of our Lead Advanced Practice Provider at Oshi Health, participated in a dynamic panel discussion at the Florida Association of Counties Conference (FAC) on June 27th! Christie joined an esteemed group of panelists to discuss the latest advancements in weight management, emphasizing the effectiveness of GLP-1s, and the necessity of a multifaceted approach, addressing components such as digestive health impact. Panelists included: - Dr. Lee Washington, Moderator, Sr. Medical Director, Aetna National Accounts - Michele Polgar, Executive Director, PBM Client Solutions and Commercialization, CVS Health - Jenn Roberts, VP Employer Health Strategy, Hello Heart - Christie Morrison, Lead Advanced Practice Provider, Oshi Health - Dr. Salvatore Docimo, Jr., DO, MS, General Surgeon, Bariatric Endoscopy It’s no secret that GLP-1s significantly impact our digestive health, leading to significant side effects and necessitating comprehensive GI care to support adherence. Key Takeaways: 🔹Fast access: Quick access to clinical support from a licensed multidisciplinary care team is crucial 🔹Patient time & education: Just like GI itself, GLP-1s are complex. Meaningful clinical time with patients is required to get to the root of side effects and any existing comorbidities and to educate patients on a path forward to ensure the effectiveness of GLP-1s.  🔹Longitudinal support: An effective approach to GLP-1s requires a personalized longitudinal care plan, including dietary and mental health support, for sustainability.  🔹Conservative Treatment: This longitudinal care plan should be conservative, leading with lifestyle modifications to avoid costly escalations. The Panel’s insights on integrating a comprehensive approach to weight management are invaluable for employers seeking optimal, cost-effective benefit decisions for their employees and their families. Kudos to Christie and the entire panel for an enlightening session! 🎉 #OshiHealth #FACConference #WeightManagement #GLP1 #GIHealth
