John, Your support means everything to us, and we need your backing now more than ever. It's time to demand better access to care for people living with obesity. Together, let's urge Congress to take action. We need Medicare to cover obesity medications under Part D and to increase the number of qualified providers offering intensive behavioral therapy (IBT) under Part B. Your Congress member is key in making this happen. |

For over a decade, OAC has championed the Treat and Reduce Obesity Act (TROA), a bipartisan bill designed to provide Medicare beneficiaries with access to safe, effective, and life-saving obesity treatments. Today, we stand at a pivotal moment in our mission to improve healthcare for millions of Americans. With less than six months left in the current congressional session, your support is more important than ever. By urging Congress to support the coverage of obesity medications under Medicare Part D and expand the availability of IBT providers, we can ensure that all individuals affected by obesity receive the comprehensive care they deserve. Your voice matters, so we've updated our advocacy tool with a brand-new way to take action -- a click-to-call feature. Phone calls, in addition to letters, make our advocacy even more impactful. But don't worry, we've made it easy for you! Simply enter your name, email and address, and we will automatically connect you to your Congress member and provide a sample script. |
