Weight Management is Moving into the Workplace and Mainstream of Healthcare

bull Screening for Obesity in Adults The US Preventive Services Task Force recommends that clinicians screen all adult patients for obesity and offer intensive counseling and behavioral interventions to promote sustained weight loss for obese adults (Grade B recommendation)

bull Medicare now covers behavioral treatment of obesity

US Preventive Services Task Force Ann Intern Med 2003139930‐932

US Preventative Services Task Force

bull The USPSTF found that the most effective interventions were comprehensive and were of high intensity (12 to 26 sessions in a year)

bull Multiple behavioral management activities such as group sessions individual sessions setting weight-loss goals improving diet or nutrition physical activity sessions addressing barriers to change active use of self-monitoring and strategizing how to maintain lifestyle changes

bull A weight loss of 5 is considered clinically important by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)

httpwwwuspreventiveservicestaskforceorguspstf11obeseadultobesershtmAnn Intern Med 201226 June

A Proposal from CMS about Coverage for Intensive Behavioral Therapy for Obesity

bull For obese Medicare beneficiaries whose counseling is furnished by a qualified primary care physician or other primary care practitioner and in a primary care setting the CMS proposes coverage of

bull One face-to-face visit every week for the first month bull One face-to-face visit every other week for months 2 to 6 and bull One face-to-face visit every month for months 7 to 12bull At the 6-month visit a reassessment of obesity and a

determination of the amount of weight loss should be performed To be eligible for face-to-face visits occurring once a month for an additional 6 months beneficiaries must have achieved a reduction in weight of at least 3 kg during the course of the first 6 months of intensive therapy

bull The USPSTF found that the most effective interventions were comprehensive and were of high intensity (12 to 26 sessions in a year)

bull Multiple behavioral management activities such as group sessions individual sessions setting weight-loss goals improving diet or nutrition physical activity sessions addressing barriers to change active use of self-monitoring and strategizing how to maintain lifestyle changes

bull A weight loss of 5 is considered clinically important by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)

A Proposal from CMS about Coverage for Intensive Behavioral Therapy for Obesity

bull For obese Medicare beneficiaries whose counseling is furnished by a qualified primary care physician or other primary care practitioner and in a primary care setting the CMS proposes coverage of

bull One face-to-face visit every week for the first month bull One face-to-face visit every other week for months 2 to 6 and bull One face-to-face visit every month for months 7 to 12bull At the 6-month visit a reassessment of obesity and a

determination of the amount of weight loss should be performed To be eligible for face-to-face visits occurring once a month for an additional 6 months beneficiaries must have achieved a reduction in weight of at least 3 kg during the course of the first 6 months of intensive therapy

bull Multiple behavioral management activities such as group sessions individual sessions setting weight-loss goals improving diet or nutrition physical activity sessions addressing barriers to change active use of self-monitoring and strategizing how to maintain lifestyle changes

determination of the amount of weight loss should be performed To be eligible for face-to-face visits occurring once a month for an additional 6 months beneficiaries must have achieved a reduction in weight of at least 3 kg during the course of the first 6 months of intensive therapy

bull For obese Medicare beneficiaries whose counseling is furnished by a qualified primary care physician or other primary care practitioner and in a primary care setting the CMS proposes coverage of

bull One face-to-face visit every week for the first month bull One face-to-face visit every other week for months 2 to 6 and bull One face-to-face visit every month for months 7 to 12bull At the 6-month visit a reassessment of obesity and a

determination of the amount of weight loss should be performed To be eligible for face-to-face visits occurring once a month for an additional 6 months beneficiaries must have achieved a reduction in weight of at least 3 kg during the course of the first 6 months of intensive therapy

In My Opinion The Winds of Change are Blowing in the Treatment of Chronic

Diseasesbull ACCORD was stopped because of increased

mortality in the tight control group 28 of whom gained gt 10kg compared to 14 in control^

bull Bariatric surgery trials show gt 80 reduction in diabetes mortality with weight loss
