MOVE! Options of Care for Veterans

  • MOVE! Group is the most common way Veterans participate. Clinician-led groups meet regularly and follow a structured discussion format. Virtual options may be available.
  • MOVE! Individual visits with a clinician in-person or by video, phone, or secure message can be beneficial for those with busy schedules.
  • TeleMOVE! and L2 Weight Management are 90-session in-home messaging programs for those who prefer to review materials on their own with periodic check-ins with a clinician to evaluate goals.
  • MOVE! Coach is an app that can be used with participation in MOVE! program options. The app can also be used as an independent self-care tool.
  • Weight Management Medications and Metabolic Bariatric Surgery are treatment options that may be helpful for some Veterans. To learn more about these options, please contact your healthcare provider or VA medical facility MOVE! team.
