Boston, MA, March 3, 2025 - Form Health, the leading provider of science-based total weight and cardiometabolic care in the United States, today announced that Fierce Healthcare has named it as one of 2025’s “Fierce 15” healthcare companies. The annual special report features the most innovative private healthcare companies looking to change the face of the industry.

“The entire Form Health team is thrilled to be named a Fierce 15 Company of 2025 and grateful to Fierce Healthcare for this honor,”  said Evan Richardson, founder and CEO of Form Health. “This recognition reflects the hard work of our incredible team and underscores the significant progress we’ve made in expanding access to science-based obesity care. There’s been a paradigm shift in how obesity, overweight, and cardiometabolic disease is treated and Form’s personalized and comprehensive care model has clearly resonated, with major employers and tens of thousands of patients across the United States choosing Form as their obesity medicine provider. We are excited to continue expanding our reach and bringing our industry-leading approach to even more Americans who need it.”

Since its founding in 2019, Form Health has provided care to patients across the United States via its unique telehealth care model, which includes a dedicated clinical Care Team consisting of an American Board of Obesity Medicine (ABOM) certified doctor and a Registered Dietitian who is a Certified Specialist in Obesity and Weight Management (CSOWM). The Care Team develops an individualized weight loss plan for each patient that addresses behavioral health, nutrition, and physical activity and includes a prescription for FDA-approved weight loss medication, if appropriate. Form is in-network with most major insurance plans, including Medicare. Patients can work with Form through an employer benefit program or by signing up individually.

“For the past seven years, we have assessed hundreds of private companies for inclusion in the‘Fierce 15’ special report. The selection spans diverse sectors within the industry, from primarycare and health payers to health technology and AI-enabled software,” said Ayla Ellison, Editor-in-Chief, Fierce Life Sciences and Healthcare. “Our special report celebrates innovation andcreativity in the face of intense competition.”

In January, Form announced a new program to prevent progression from overweight to obesity. Individuals with overweight are at an increased risk of developing obesity and weight-related cardiometabolic conditions like type 2 diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and heart disease. Overweight is a treatable medical condition, and Form’s new offering applies a science-based approach to not only prevent obesity and these conditions but also achieve positive outcomes like weight loss and improved health. The overweight offering was designed by Form Health Chief Medical Officer Florencia Halperin, MD, MMSc, and Director of Clinical Nutrition Julia Axelbaum, RD, CSOWM, LDN.
