Kinsinger LS et al. - The VA’s MOVE! Weight-Management Program for Veterans is an innovative and comprehensive strategy to provide sophisticated treatment for overweight and obesity to veterans. The program also provides an opportunity to study the best strategies for delivering this care and for measuring the health outcomes of patients who receive it. Similar to VHA’s implementation of quality improvement and system change for tobacco control, MOVE! is an example of translation of research and evidence-based medicine into broad medical practice in a large health care organization.
