SMARTLife Utah: Reducing Obesity in Community Health Center Patients

This study, called SMARTLife Utah, is looking for ways to help people in community health centers manage obesity. It tests different approaches to connect patients with programs that help with weight loss. These approaches include using Electronic Health Record (EHR) prompts (Ask-Advise-Connect or AAC), text messages (TM, TM-Continued), or text messages combined with phone coaching (TM+MAPS). The study aims to see which methods are best at getting people to enroll in these weight management programs. You might be able to join if you are 18 or older, have a BMI (Body Mass Index) of 30 or higher, speak English or Spanish, and have a valid cell phone number. The study plans to include 5354 participants.
