Diabetic Care & Supplies

Virta Health offers a leading clinically proven treatment to reverse Type 2 diabetes without drugs or surgery. We have published 10 peer-reviewed articles which show a 60% reversal rate after one year and a sustained, long-term reversal in 83% of patients after two years. Virta reverses diabetes through a highly individualized medical-nutritional therapy, delivered virtually by our tech-enabled, provider-led medical group. We begin by teaching patients to adopt a unique, low-carbohydrate nutrition plan, which has been demonstrated effective in our clinical trial. As patients make nutritional changes, their blood sugar drops quickly, which requires rapid adjustments to their medications. Our team of providers monitors patients’ blood glucose daily, via biometric monitoring devices we provide. Typically, our providers cut insulin dosage by 50% in the first week and eliminate most diabetes drugs completely by 10 weeks. Virta’s providers are full-time employees who are board-certified in various specialties, including Endocrinology, and are licensed in all 50 states to ensure nationwide availability.

Virta enrollment is easy! For more information and to apply, go to https://www.virtahealth.com/join/careington. A Virta enrollment specialist will answer all your questions, order labs and schedule a telemedicine visit with a Virta provider. Virta’s treatment is available to you at no additional cost and includes a glucometer, strips, lancets and more!

Medical Mediation

The Health Advocate Medical Bill Saver service gives members access to skilled negotiators who can help lower their out-of-pocket costs on medical bills not covered by insurance. Members could save hundreds – even thousands – of dollars, and while Health Advocate does not guarantee a specific level of savings, on average, members see discounts of 25%-50%.

How it works

• Member gives Health Advocate their medical and dental bills that must be at least $400 or more
• Health Advocate contacts the provider on the member’s behalf to negotiate a discount
• Negotiations can lead to a reduction in the member’s out-of-pocket costs
• Once an agreement is made, the provider signs off on the new payment terms and conditions

Member will receive an easy-to-read, personal Savings Result Statement, summarizing the outcome and payment terms

*This service is applicable to bills over $400 from previous procedures to be negotiated as long as the bill is within a one-year time frame.
*Health Advocate will attempt to negotiate with providers on claim balances where allowed by states. Best attempts to reduce balances are made but specific percentage results are not guaranteed.
