Weight Management Service
Worldwide obesity has more than doubled
since 1980
The Health Call Weight Management Programme helps overweight patients achieve and maintain a healthy weight. Our weight management programme allows healthcare professionals to remotely monitor their patient’s progress, and provide
support when needed.
The patient can choose to be contacted through either a landline or mobile telephone, where they’ll be asked questions around their general well-being and
record their weight. Our technology then assesses the patient’s weight and BMI. If readings fall outside of preset parameters, alerts can be set up to make contact with
the patient.
Readings then go into leading GP systems, meaning that the data inputted by the patient can flow straight into their patient record, enabling clinicians to have access
to the most up-to-date information for every patient.

Properly Informed Decision Making
Clinicians have instant access to patient data. The data the patient inputs can flow
straight into leading GP systems. This means that healthcare professionals can make
better-informed decisions around the care of their patients
Improved Clinical Outcomes
Empowering the patient to manage and monitor their health can enable them to
identify cause and effect. NHS Health Call supports patients to understand their health
meaning patients feel better cared for
Cost Saving
Remote monitoring reduces the need for patients to travel to GP surgeries and take
up appointments. Our service allows patients to take charge of their own health, meaning
resource savings can be realised
Improved Efficiency
Remotely monitoring patients frees up healthcare professionals capacity, and
allows resources to be used more effectively. Adopting this solution means that more
patients can be monitored using the same resources, without compromising on quality
