Our membership simplifies healthcare and empowers you with information to seamlessly provide care - a level of convenience that's hard to find in traditional healthcare systems.
If a member needs additional tests or procedures that are not included in their Forward membership, then Forward will try to identify a non-Forward option that fits their needs. For members with insurance, that typically means Forward will coordinate with the insurance company to obtain prior authorizations for coverage, identify in-network providers, and facilitate specialist referrals. Forward does not bill insurance.
Forward is not health insurance and is not a substitute for comprehensive health insurance. While Forward does not require that its members have insurance, we encourage our members who can afford it to obtain comprehensive health insurance coverage.
Without insurance, healthcare costs can accumulate quickly when paying out of pocket. Each doctor's visit, lab order, and all the costs associated with lab draws or physical diagnostics can add up to a significant amount, especially when you consider the frequency with which you might need these services to maintain or monitor your health.
Forward’s membership includes access to primary care services and basic lab work at a cost that is much lower than the average monthly insurance premium.
Forward is not health insurance and is not a substitute for comprehensive health insurance. While Forward does not require that its members have insurance, we encourage our members to obtain comprehensive health insurance coverage.
Eligible HSA and FSA plans may be used to pay for Forward membership. Ultimately, it's up to your FSA or HSA provider to determine whether Forward's membership fee can be paid with your FSA/HSA funds. We're happy to provide documentation for you to submit to your FSA or HSA provider. Please reach out via chat or call us at 833-33-GOFWD for assistance.
With Forward, you have access to the CarePod 7 days a week to get blood work and other physical diagnostics as often as you want.* Your personalized longevity plan will also recommend a retesting cadence for specific biomarkers based on your personal risks.
*The same type of blood based lab test cannot be performed more than once in a seven day period. California members may be subject to limits on CarePod visits per year, see Forward’s Membership Agreement for details.
You will be charged for your first month of Forward on the day you sign up for your membership. You will then be charged monthly for your membership, on a go forward basis, on the same day each subsequent month. The monthly fee includes all services outlined under your monthly membership.

Forward uses the Tasso+ blood collection device to get your sample in under 5 minutes.
The Tasso+ sticks to the skin with a light adhesive. When the button is pressed, a vacuum forms and a lancet pricks the surface of the skin. The vacuum draws blood out of the capillaries and into a compatible container attached to the bottom of the Tasso Button.
Full Body Scans with CarePod™
Within minutes, our non-invasive scan captures comprehensive data about your heart's health, including arrhythmia and murmur detection, and uses AI to screen for valvular disease and heart failure. With this information, your clinical team facilitates prompt intervention and management.
See yourself like never before by capturing your custom 3D body model via hundreds of sensors in seconds and track changes to your body over time.
The dermatoscope offers a detailed analysis of your skin's condition. Within moments, capture high-resolution images to identify a wide range of skin concerns, from moles and lesions to signs of sun damage and early detection of skin cancer.

Access effective GLP-1 weekly injections like Wegovy®*, Zepbound®*, Ozempic®* and Mounjaro®*
Assess need for medications purpose-built to reduce cravings like Contrave®*
Medically boost your metabolism with medications specifically crafted to improve calorie burn
Wegovy® (semaglutide), Zepbound® (tirzepatide), and Contrave® (naltrexone HCI & bupropion HCI) are specifically FDA-approved for weight loss. Ozempic® (semaglutide) and Mounjaro® (tirzepatide) are FDA-approved for type 2 diabetes treatment, but may be prescribed off-label for weight loss at a healthcare provider’s discretion.
Prior to use, it's crucial to fully understand the potential risks associated with semaglutides and tirzepatide, including serious side effects like the risk of thyroid C-cell tumors. Individuals with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2) should avoid semaglutide and tirzepatide medications. Risks associated with naltrexone HCI & bupropion HCI include increased risk of suicidal thinking; monitor for worsening and emergence of suicidal thoughts and behaviors. Always consult the necessary safety information for these medications.
Support and professional guidance for your health journey are always just a message away. Whether you have questions about your health plan, need to refine your goals, or are considering different options, a clinician is readily available to take your questions whenever you need.
I’m always fascinated by answers that go to ‘worried about my data’. Personalisation has some way to go in healthcare, positively rather than as a threat. I wish all primary care was as good as @goforward, and that is about data-based insights…
If you’re looking to get healthy or meet some health goals this year I will swear by @goforward as in personally vouch for as in the first person who says it was a dud I’ll refund you your first payment (limit 1).
For the first time in years as a patient of @goforward I’m in a reactive mode with an illness and as always, they simply exceed expectations in every way. Responsive, consultative, proactive, accomodating. Simply world class #healthcare . Now to kick this bug!
last night I had my first anxiety attack apparently I was to excited to start this week cause it was going to be life change. But @goforward saved my life. Awesome tech would love to invest if I could. They are the future of medical tech man. #simplythebest🙏🏿 #THANK_YOU #blessed
Starting to get a glimpse of how @goforward will be able to improve healthcare for all. I believe Forward will fundamentally change our lives, and thus what healthcare is. (traditional model of costs will be irrelevant)
