Summary

Hospitalized patients with obesity who are not already in CWM (comprehensive weight management), or not comfort care/hospice will be identified by the hospitalists then the study dietitian will consent for the patient for enrollment (and answer any question regarding diet/lifestyle) in the study. The intervention will be a CWM referral at discharge. The outcome will be what percentage of these patients go to the CWM clinic at 6 months. At 6 months, the investigators will also call each participant to get a qualitative idea of the process of inpatient referral and barriers to the CWM clinic visit. Weight loss, starting on anti-obesity medication, bariatric surgery will be assessed as a secondary outcome.
