Obesity is a highly prevalent, chronically progressing disease. Obesity represents a challenge for people living with obesity, health care professionals and the society, because it is also associated with several comorbid diseases. For people with obesity in Germany, there is a significant deficit in the medical treatment infrastructure. The treatment access gap is mainly caused by a lack of legal frameworks for the guideline-driven obesity management. A currently developed disease management program for obesity has the potential to fill the gap in obesity management in the future.
