OBJECTIVE: The objective was to determine whether @entity28 screening and weight management program participation and outcomes are equitable for individuals with @entity1032 ( @entity1032 ) and @entity308 ( @entity308 ) compared to those without @entity1032 / @entity308 in Veterans Health Administration (VHA), the largest integrated US health system, which requires @entity28 screening and offers weight management to all in need. METHODS: We used chart-reviewed, clinical and administrative VHA data from fiscal years 2010-2012 to estimate @entity28 screening and participation in the VHA's weight management program (MOVE!) across groups. Six- and 12-month weight changes in MOVE! @entity1 were estimated using linear mixed models adjusted for confounders. RESULTS: Compared to individuals without @entity1032 / @entity308 , individuals with @entity1032 or @entity308 were less frequently screened for @entity28 (94%-94.7% vs. 95.7%) but had greater participation in MOVE! (10.1%-10.4% vs. 7.4%). MOVE! @entity1 with @entity1032 or @entity308 lost approximately 1 lb less at 6 months. At 12 months, average @entity353 for individuals with @entity1032 or neither @entity1032 / @entity308 was comparable (-3.5 and -3.3 lb, respectively), but individuals with @entity308 lost less weight (mean=-2.7 lb). CONCLUSIONS: Disparities in @entity28 screening and treatment outcomes across mental health diagnosis groups were modest. However, participation in MOVE! was low for every group, which limits population impact.
