CMWL’s ObesityTx is now available on the athenahealth Marketplace. The platform offers a structured framework to help improve patient health outcomes through weight loss. ObesityTx features clinical and practice development training for obesity medicine, predictive patient weight loss, a behavioral counseling system with personalized recommendations and documentation for obesity service insurance reimbursement.
CMWL’s program also enables providers to identify high-risk obese patient populations that fall under the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force and CMS guidelines for obesity screening and follow-up care.
“For over a decade, CMWL has filled a critical gap in the healthcare system by enabling medical providers across the United States to effectively treat patients suffering from obesity, which the American Medical Association acknowledges is a chronic disease that should be addressed by the medical community,” said Kevin Eberly, CEO of CMWL. “Now, [athenahealth] customers can easily support that vision through optimized weight loss patient workflows and access to a host of tools and resources designed to achieve meaningful outcomes. For practices seeking new revenue sources or a distinct advantage in the transition to value-based care, CMWL’s framework supports those goals as well.”
