Getting started with Miga
Miga is a virtual medical practice focused on weight loss and heart health. We collaborate with you to build a care plan that aligns with your goals and lifestyle. Here’s what comes next:
1. Intro call with an onboarding specialist
In your upcoming intro call, your onboarding specialist will help you navigate your insurance, answer your questions, and schedule your intake visit with a medical provider.
2. Intake visit
A medical provider will review your medical history and goals, order labs, and start building your care plan. They’ll also help you schedule visits with your dedicated medical provider and health coach.
3. Meet your dedicated medical provider
Review your lab results with your provider, create an individualized care plan, discuss prescriptions (if needed), and schedule follow-up visits. You will also schedule your first visit with a dietitian.
4. Support from a health coach
Your health coach can offer guidance and accountability on your personal health goals, whether related to nutrition, physical activity, stress, sleep, or other habits.
5. Initial dietitian visit
In your first visit with your registered dietitian, you’ll share more about your nutrition goals, participate in a nutrition assessment, and receive personalized nutrition recommendations.
Your entire Miga care team is available to chat via the Miga app.
