Why obesity care falls short in most health systems

Providers are already stretched

Obesity, cardiometabolic conditions, lifestyle counseling. These take time appointments don't have. Nutrition, sleep, and stress management get squeezed out.

Behavior change can't happen in a clinic

Patients leave with the right intentions. Without ongoing behavioral support, most revert within weeks.

Downstream costs compound quietly

Unmanaged obesity and related conditions escalate into higher acuity, more medication, and more utilization. Not intervening early always costs more.

Emblazer clinical platform

Your cardiometabolic care partner

Embla works alongside your providers as a virtual extension of the care team. Health coaches monitor progress, deliver behavioral support, and keep providers informed in real time through Emblazer.

Talk to our team

Real-time provider visibility

Live patient progress, engagement, and coach notes in Emblazer. Direct communication with the assigned health coach.

Behavioral coaching between visits

Regular check-ins between appointments, meeting patients where they are and building changes that fit their actual life.

Multidisciplinary coordination

Coaches flag behavioral changes, raise concerns outside the clinic, and keep providers current. One shared clinical picture, updated continuously.

Structured GLP-1 management

Coaches support medication adherence, track side effects, and coordinate with the patient's licensed provider on dosing and structured tapering. All medical decisions are made solely by the patient's licensed provider.

Match the right program to each patient

Every program works alongside your clinical team, with real-time data through Emblazer.

Two patient enrollment pathways. Minimal lift for your team.

Provider-initiated

Providers refer patients directly through Emblazer during or after an appointment. The weight management program starts with the clinical relationship already in place.

Direct sign-up

Patients enroll via QR code or link before seeing a provider. Behavioral coaching begins earlier, and providers get a clearer picture before the first visit.

Real-world obesity treatment outcomes

Embla's behavior-first weight management model is backed by the TRIM study (Seier et al., Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, 2025). 2,694 participants, 64 weeks of real-world clinical data.

Weight loss and cardiometabolic outcomes

16.7% average weight loss

At 64 weeks, across all BMI classes.

78.5% tapered or stopped GLP-1s

Structured tapering built into the program. No indefinite prescribing.

Less than half the standard GLP-1 dose

~1.08 mg/week average semaglutide, far below the 2.4 mg/week standard maximum.
