Introducing the RAID-FN Inventory—a new scale designed to measure what so many people report experiencing: food noise. https://lnkd.in/eWUjpdAt Food noise isn’t just about hunger or cravings. It’s the persistent, intrusive thoughts about food that are burdensome, unpleasant, and unwanted. Until now, this experience had no clear definition nor standardized measure. That’s why we partnered with leading experts to develop and rigorously validate the Ro Allison Indiana Dhurandhar Food Noise (RAID-FN) Inventory, a brief questionnaire that comprehensively assesses food noise. Now with this tool, anyone will be able to measure their food noise, clinicians can better manage it, and researchers can uncover more about its effects and potential treatments.

Today, we’re kicking off a new blog series: Powered by ro.OS. We love building to make healthcare easier for patients and now we’re pulling back the curtain. https://lnkd.in/ecQWkZ9F This series spotlights the tools and features Ro has built to enable a seamless, end-to-end experience—making care more simple, effective, and scalable. In our first edition, we’re diving into the Prior Authorization Details Page: a tool that gives patients timely updates, clarity, and guidance during the insurance approval process. When patients know where they stand, they feel more confident in their care.
