Overview
• Challenges within the service delivery system
• Lessons from Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)
• Vision and goals for the Missouri Centers of Excellence for Childhood Obesity
![Page 4: Spreading and Scaling Prevention and Treatment Approaches: Centers of Excellence Model Janet E. Farmer, PhD School of Health Professions University of](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022071806/56649d305503460f94a0926f/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The Challenge: Gaps in Care • No or low dose treatment of obesity in children, with
little or no care coordination• Health professionals lack awareness of and training in
evidence-based weight control strategies• Reimbursement is inadequate to meet the need• Traditionally underserved groups (e.g., rural, low
income) have less access to effective care• Collaborative partnerships sometimes exist, but in
general the care delivery system is fragmented

What Can We Learn From ASD? Children with obesity and those affected by Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) show similarities:
• Increasing prevalence of both conditions• Range in level of severity; often chronic and
stigmatizing• Complex etiologies that require a multi-faceted
approach to service delivery, cutting across care settings
• Growing public awareness of the unmet needs of children and families
![Page 8: Spreading and Scaling Prevention and Treatment Approaches: Centers of Excellence Model Janet E. Farmer, PhD School of Health Professions University of](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022071806/56649d305503460f94a0926f/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
What Can We Learn From ASD? Children with obesity and those affected by Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) show similarities:
• Effective behavioral treatments have emerged• Family involvement is critical• Early intervention is the best approach, but
children are often not identified in a timely way• Inadequate number of providers to meet the need
for evidence-based treatment, especially for vulnerable groups
• Readiness for change in systems of care through collaborative partnerships

Centers of Excellence for Childhood Obesity
• Centers will forge collaborative relationships with other centers and with partners in effective prevention and treatment • Caregivers• Primary and specialty health care providers• Schools• Child care centers• Non-profit organizations• State agencies
• Centers will serve as a central point of contact and support for• Treatment delivery• Training for families, providers and communities• Research to advance the knowledge base about effective care and
service delivery

Specific RecommendationThe Missouri Department of Health & Senior Services will establish at least three university-based Centers of Excellence to:• Assure regional, coordinated access to treatment in health
care and community settings through a network of affiliated partners
• Meet standards to provide evidence-based, multi-component (EBMC) weight reduction programs
• Provide training for health care providers, school staff, and others in their region about screening, treatment, prevention and referral strategies
• Conduct research to evolve prevention and treatment best practice approaches.
