SchoolCare was founded in 1995 as the New Hampshire School Health Care Coalition by bringing together associations representing public entity management and labor groups in the state. The Coalition was formed in response to issues of providing employee health care, including quality, choice, cost control and service that public entities were facing. Today, over twenty-five years later, SchoolCare is still a well-regarded resource for public entities facing these same issues.

The Pulse of SchoolCare, November 2022
Prevent or Reverse Pre-Diabetes With Help From Omada
Published November 11, 2022
Ninety-six million people in the United States have pre-diabetes, but 80 percent of them don’t know it, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The CDC says people with pre-diabetes experience higher than normal blood sugar readings, but not high enough for a type 2 diabetes diagnosis.
For those with pre-diabetes and others at-risk of developing type 2 diabetes, the good news is that it can be prevented, and pre-diabetes can be reversed. Healthy eating and regular exercise provide a recipe for success in prevention. And with about a third of US children being overweight, leading to more type 2 diabetes diagnoses in children and youth as young as 10, experts recommend teaching children about nutrition and exercise from a young age. These simple but effective tips can help the whole family live a healthy, active lifestyle.
Get support with the Omada program
If you are looking to refine your eating habits and lose some weight, the Omada program may be able to help. Certain qualifying factors apply but you can find out instantly if you are eligible by taking Omada’s short health survey found here.
Omada is a lifestyle change program designed to help develop sustainable healthy eating practices without counting calories or points. It can help you enjoy new, healthier foods without depriving you of foods you love. As a program participant, you are provided with a digital scale linked directly to your account, a smartphone app to track your progress and most importantly, a one-on-one certified health coach to help you step-by-step along the way.
The program cost is covered by your SchoolCare insurance for the subscriber and eligible dependents*.
