Study Summary

The PAL intervention uses a new software tool delivered on tablets to facilitate 5As-based weight management counseling with a peer health coach and the VA PACT healthcare team to promote goal-setting, behavior change, and weight loss in the primary care (PC) setting. The PAL intervention also includes 10-12 health-coaching calls to the patient over 12 months. As part of a cluster-randomized controlled study, the investigators will randomize 17 primary care providers at the Brooklyn VA to receive either the PAL Intervention or an Enhanced Usual Care control. The primary aim of the study is to explore differences in feasibility, acceptability, and intermediate, behavioral, and weight loss outcomes at 6 and 12 months of 520 patients recruited from the randomized primary care providers. Objective: 1\) Explore the feasibility and impact of this intervention on intermediate, behavioral, and weight loss outcomes at 6 and 12 months post-intervention when compared to enhanced usual care.
