| Abstract | Currently, assessing physical activity (PA) and cardiorespiratory fitness in healthcare settings and supporting patients on their journey toward active living is not a standard of practice in the US, although significant progress is underway. This paper summarizes the foundational as well as supporting public policies necessary to make PA assessment, prescription, and referral a standard of care in the US healthcare system to support active living for all. Measure standardization and healthcare integration will be supported by digital health and public private partnerships, as well as payer strategies and quality and performance incentives. The policy and systems change effort, currently being led by the Physical Activity Alliance's "It's Time to Move" initiative, will improve patient care and the ability to monitor PA levels across the US population, filling in gaps in current national public health surveillance systems. Having patient data available will also allow for additional research that elucidates the relationship between PA and overall health and well-being. |
