Livongo Diabetes Prevention Program 

Did you know one in three U.S. adults are pre-diabetic? You may be even more surprised that only one in 10 are aware of it.  

That’s why a new diabetes prevention program is now available for State employees through your Wellmark Blue Cross and Blue Shield health benefits. The Livongo program makes living healthy and managing weight easier with a smart scale, guidance on healthy habits, and personalized health coaching. 

Is the Livongo Program Right for You?

 

Livongo is designed to help those at risk of developing type 2 diabetes. This voluntary program is available to you, your covered spouse, or covered dependents 18+ years old. It includes:

  1. Unlimited One-on-One Coaching: Connect with a health coach to create a custom plan that works with your lifestyle. Get personalized advice on nutrition, meal plans, weight loss, and more to help you reach your goals. 
  2. Advanced Tracking Technology: Receive a free smart scale that syncs to an easy-to-use mobile app, so you can track weight and activity all in one place.
  3. Guidance on Healthy Habits: Learn how to take simple but powerful steps to lose weight, eat healthy, sleep better, and live healthier.

I love that it has taught me to be more mindful about my eating and exercising.
