Doctors prescribe gym time in new health system test
NCT ID NCT06073041
Summary
This study tested a new system for doctors to refer patients with chronic diseases to a 12-week exercise program at local community centers like the YMCA. Researchers tracked how many clinics used the system, how many patients got referred, and whether those patients saw improvements in their weight, blood pressure, and activity levels. The goal was to learn if this kind of program can be successfully added to regular doctor visits and if it helps control health costs.
