Considerations for Cost Assessment of Implementing Family Healthy Weight Programs Across Community and Clinical Contexts
This study provides an overview of approaches to assessing FHWP implementation costs within the CDC's CORD 3.0 initiative. Applying structured frameworks and practical tools, these projects demonstrate how cost assessments can guide strategic planning, reimbursement, and sustainability-laying groundwork for improved cost reporting and integration in future FHWP dissemination and implementation.
