The purpose of this registry is to establish a research data repository, comprised of data generated in the course of providing clinical services to patients treated by Virta Health, to conduct secondary research on clinical interventions and chronic diseases.~The scope of research under this protocol includes the following:~Examining the effectiveness, safety, and sustainability of Virta Health clinical interventions for treating chronic diseases and prevention of or regression of associated adverse health outcomes.~Examining the cost-effectiveness and economic impact of Virta Health clinical interventions for treating chronic diseases and preventing or regressing associated adverse health outcomes.~Identifying demographics, clinical characteristics, comorbidities, concomitant treatments, genetic variants, and behavioral phenotypes that predict more or less favorable clinical outcomes of subjects to Virta Health clinical interventions for chronic diseases.~Examining the impact of mental health and the behavioral modification components of Virta Health clinical interventions on disease markers, comorbidities, and adverse health outcomes associated with Virta Health clinical interventions.~Characterizing typical presentation patterns, genetic determinants, biochemistry, and pathophysiology of the chronic diseases treated by Virta Health.~Exploring relationships between dietary composition and physiologic characteristics of chronic diseases.~Exploring the interrelationship and common clinical/biological features of the various chronic diseases under treatment by Virta Health.~Compiling case reports and case series of interesting disease presentations and outcomes, of the chronic diseases Virta Health treats, that may inform about the disease state and treatment responses.~Validating the integration of technological aids into Virta Health clinical interventions. Where the impacts of devices are examined, devices will be FDA-approved and approved, marketed devices. No safety data will be collected on devices; rather, research will focus only on the feasibility of adding the device to the treatment program, its relationship with participant behaviors and health outcomes, and patient satisfaction attributable to the device.~Understanding the relationships of patient needs, educational methods, and use of the Virta Health online Application, to subsequent patient satisfaction/clinical outcomes.
