Risk Informed Obesity Care Plan Pilot

The purpose of this research is to conduct a pilot of a risk-informed obesity care plan, implemented through pediatric primary care provider training via a Virtual Learning Collaborative (VLC) at MGH's Healthy Weight Clinic. We will evaluate HEDIS documentation and BMI outcomes among kids who receive care from the participating providers during and after the training period, compared to those who received care from the providers prior to the training.
