- Summary:
- Evidence-based weight loss treatments are rarely offered in routine primary care practice owing in part to lack of reimbursement, lack of provider training and experience in discussing treatment options, and the difficulties inherent in discussing all available options. Little evidence exists about the effect of addressing these common barriers to optimal practice in real-world settings.
