@ManOnThePen So excited for this movement! Perhaps we petition each insurance CEO to make obesity care a STANDARD BENEFIT on all plans. No carve out, no opting in. Employers don’t have to opt in for cancer care. They have the power to just make it so. No PAs for lower cost Rx.

@ManOnThePen @RonnieBallard11 @ObesityAction Yes! You can join the board at some point or be on a committee and we need to figure out how we effect change at a larger scale. Marches, lawsuits, boycotts.

@RonnieBallard11 @ManOnThePen I have said this for years! If the 140 million people with obesity stood up and said to the government that we need coverage for the disease and went to their employers demanding coverage things would change. There is so much bias and stigma that no one stands up! Join OAC!
