Patient FAQs

Everything You Need to Know About Integrating Orthopedic Care and Personalized Fitness for Optimal Results

Who is eligible for the Prescribe FIT Lifestyle Program?

Eligibility for the EmergeOrtho and Prescribe FIT Lifestyle Program includes Medicare or Medicare Advantage Plan members with a BMI of 30 and over and members should have access to their own smartphone device.  Commercial insurance plans are not currently covered, but a self-pay program option is available. Medicare plan members are responsible for their co-insurance requirements. Prescribe FIT care team members will help you to determine coverage and benefits before enrolling.

Do I need to go anywhere in-person?

No. The program is 100% virtual and available to you wherever you’re located.

Using technology can be challenging for me. Can you help?

Yes, of course! The EmergeOrtho and Prescribe FIT team is always there to help you every step of the way. The technology was built with this in mind so it’s easy to use for anyone, anywhere, on any device. You just need a smartphone or tablet. Prescribe FIT’s team will ensure your account is set up and that your device is paired with the Bluetooth scale. Once you’ve begun the program, your health coach will guide you through the program.

What diet will I be following?

Prescribe FIT is NOT a gimmicky diet fad. There is no specific diet you will be encouraged to follow. Long-term success is built through general healthy eating, portion control, frequency of eating, and other personalized advice from your health coach.

How difficult are the exercises?

Each patient is prescribed a personalized exercise program based on their specific needs and capabilities. You do not need any sort of special equipment to get started.

How long is the program?

Your prescription is for 12 months, and we recommend staying in the program for the full 12 months to fully ingrain the lifestyle change.

Why is my doctor telling me to lose weight? What does this have to do with my orthopedic concerns?

Research shows that when you focus on the root causes of your musculoskeletal pain and/or arthritic conditions, a slight change in body weight can reduce exponential pressure on your joints and thereby improve your condition. In fact, just a 1 lb reduction in weight, can reduce 4 lbs of stress on your knee and 10 lbs of pressure on your back. Eating anti-inflammatory foods can also help reduce pain. EmergeOrtho and Prescribe FIT can help you lose weight and reduce pain. The program is proven to improve mobility, increase energy and more! Patients who routinely engage in appropriate exercises, learn about eating better, and have weekly conversations with their health coach ultimately improve their day-to-day life.
