Adherence

A web-based behavioral weight management program (POWeR+) combined with brief remote nurse support (emails/phone calls) produces clinically significant weight loss and maintenance in primary care patients, achieving results comparable to intensive face-to-face interventions without increasing health service costs.

Use a structured web-based weight management program that teaches behavioral skills and allows you to choose your diet type. Supplement this with brief, remote check-ins (emails or short phone calls) from a nurse or health coach. This approach is effective for losing and maintaining weight, costs the same as standard care, and is less burdensome than frequent in-person visits.
