How to Get Involved:

Commit to Care
Take the Commit to Care Pledge and stand up for accessible, affordable and compassionate obesity care! After signing, show your support by grabbing your "Commit to Care" sign from the OCW Promotions Toolkit, snapping a photo and sharing it online. We’ll be featuring participant photos at the end of the week!

 

Take Action
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) is reviewing a Proposed Rule to expand coverage for obesity medications. More than 33,000 individuals submitted Public Comments in support of the Proposed Rule, and a final decision is expected in April.  

Let’s keep the momentum going! Send a letter to President Trump urging his administration to make this critical change.
