eMed’s unique at home screening kit makes it easy to help the most at-risk members
Most GLP-1 programs simply prescribe medication. eMed built a clinical intake process that creates broader population health intelligence
Our clinicians screen for key biomarkers and help members get a clearer picture on their health.
HbA1C
Screens for/monitors diabetes; reflects average blood glucose over 2–3 months.
Creatinine
Simple, reproducible, indicator of kidney filtration.
hs-CRP
Biomarker for systemic inflammation in cardiovascular risk assessment.
GGT
Sensitive marker of hepatobiliary dysfunction and oxidative stress.
Lipid Panel
Screens for dyslipidemia; assesses cardiovascular risk via cholesterol levels (TC, LDL, HDL).
Vitamin B12
Screens for megaloblastic anemia and GLP-1 related nutritional deficiencies.
Lipoprotein A
The 2025 ACC/AHA dyslipidemia guideline recommends measuring Lp(a) concentration at least once in all adults for ASCVD risk assessment.
Clinical review may identify risk indicators or findings that warrant follow-up, consistent with applicable clinical protocols. Diagnosis and treatment decisions are made by licensed clinicians and may require referral or follow-up care.
