The purpose of the Weight Management ECHO is to build the capacity of primary care clinicians and their team members to provide evidence-based comprehensive care of their eligible patients with complicated overweight and obesity. This includes education about weight loss efficacy from lifestyle interventions and, when not sufficient, initiating anti-obesity medications, counseling for metabolic-bariatric surgery, referring to subspecialty care for co-management of complicated comorbid conditions, and education about how best practices to reduce bias and stigma in overweight and obesity. This program will be delivered using the Project ECHO protocol, a virtual, case-based and interactive protocol.
