Study Summary
Evidence-based interventions for overweight and obesity are underutilized. The utilization and efficacy of these interventions may improve with the implementation of a patient navigator program, as has been practiced in other fields (e.g., cancer). The proposed study will enroll adults ("index participants") (N=68) with overweight/obesity in a 12-month program in which they will be provided with a navigator who will help them understand their options for evidence-based weight loss intervention and who will promote initiation and continued engagement with an intervention option. The project will provide information about how well received the navigator program is and the extent to which it works as expected.
