Digital technologies for delivering multidisciplinary weight-management services to adults

NICE has published early value assessment guidance on technologies for delivering multidisciplinary weight-management services to adults that can be used in the NHS, while more evidence is generated. These technologies provide multidisciplinary programmes to increase physical activity levels and improve eating behaviour and diet. Some of these technologies can also be used to prescribe and monitor weight-management medicine. See NICE's early value assessment on digital technologies for delivering multidisciplinary weight-management services.
