HealthPartners
KP-CMI has collaborated with HealthPartners on the Kaiser Permanente 10,000 Steps® Program and recently completed an evidence-based review of the weight management literature which was conducted at HealthPartners of Minnesota, Inc., in collaboration with Kaiser Permanente.
KP collaborates with both CDC and HealthPartners on a CDC workgroup to translate and disseminate recommendations and promising practices for obesity prevention and control in medical care settings. The workgroup is translating the recommendations from the physical activity and pending obesity topic areas of the CDC Guide to Community Preventive Services¹ and examining evidence not included in the Community Guide to develop promising practices for addressing obesity in health plans and other health care delivery organizations.
