Program Information

Weight Management
Are you overweight?
Use this Body Mass Index (BMI) calculator to find out.
Priority Health's HealthyEncountersSM - Weight Management Program is for members who are very overweight. Working with the Michigan Medical, P.C., Center for Health Excellence, the program focuses on safe weight loss.

Participants are screened and must follow strict rules. Priority Health covers part of the cost, but members must also do their part by sharing in the cost and making a dedicated commitment to stay with the program.
