Form Health, The Leading Provider of Science-Based Obesity Care in the United States, Hires Theresa Nute as Vice President, Health Plans

Boston, MA,  September 9, 2024 - Today, Form Health, the leading provider of science-based obesity care in the United States, announced that Theresa Nute has been hired to serve as Vice President, Health Plans. In her role, Theresa will be responsible for working with health plans to recommend and offer Form Health as their obesity solution. 

Theresa has extensive experience working with growth-stage healthcare technology companies. Most recently, she served as General Manager, Health Plans for fertility and family planning clinic, Kindbody. Earlier in her career, she worked in senior sales roles at Verisk Health, Edifecs, and Apixio. Starting in 2015, she spent nearly 7 years at Teladoc as Area Vice President Health Plan Sales before moving to HealthEdge where she served as Vice President of Business Development.

In her role at Form, she will:

• Deepen relationships with health plan partners to deliver obesity management solutions.
• Expand "in-network" provider relationships with leading health plans in the United States for Form providers and clinical programs.
• Enable health plans to offer Form Health to their self-funded and fully insured enterprise clients via an integrated benefit solution.
• Partner with aggregators to deliver Form Health to their clients.

“As we continue to expand the reach of our virtual center of excellence for obesity care, we are thrilled to welcome Theresa to our team,” said Jen Cressman, Chief Commercial Officer at Form Health.  “Theresa brings an incredible track record of success in complex health plan and aggregator partnerships and is deeply respected among former peers and clients alike.  This year, we’ve demonstrated strong demand for our services among self-insured employers and it's a natural next step to broaden our reach through deeper health plan partnerships.  Theresa will be an effective advocate for us in that work.”

In June, Form announced it had raised $38 million in funding to accelerate its work with enterprise partners, support the hiring of American Board of Obesity Medicine (ABOM) physicians to deliver science-based obesity care, and invest in its telehealth technology platform.
