Advancing Biopsychosocial Care Training Initiative for Weight Management

This study, called the Advancing Biopsychosocial Care Training Initiative, is looking at different ways to train healthcare providers in Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) to help patients with weight management and obesity. It compares two approaches: "Comprehensive Multidisciplinary Obesity Care" (CMOC), which is a new training program for medical providers, dietitians, and behavioral health providers, and "Implementation as Usual Control," which is the standard care without this new training. The study aims to see if CMOC training leads to better patient weight changes and more patients achieving significant weight loss. It also looks at how many patients use these services, how often providers refer patients for care, and the costs involved. The study plans to include 6200 participants, aged 5 years and older, of all genders. The current status of the study is unclear.
