 The data set used in this study was originally created for a different research project on patterns of obesity care within selected BCBS plans. The previous research project (but not the current study) was funded by unrestricted research grants from Ethicon Endo-Surgery, Inc. (a Johnson & Johnson company); Pfizer, Inc and GlaxoSmithKline. The data and database development support and guidance were provided by the BCBS Association, BCBS of Tennessee, BCBS of Hawaii, BCBS of Michigan, BCBS of North Carolina, Highmark, Inc. of Pennsylvania, Independence Blue Cross of Pennsylvania, Wellmark BCBS of Iowa and Wellmark BCBS of South Dakota.
