As management of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) advances, the outpatient (OP) population is shifting its fears from risks of malnutrition to those associated with over-nutrition and under-nutrition, lack of diet education, access to resources, mental health implications, and socioeconomic status. Failure to identify a patient at nutrition risk could lead to increased costs of care which can be avoided by proper nutrition screening and counseling with a Registered Dietitian (RD). The integration of nutrition counseling into the interdisciplinary care model for patients with IBD needs to be optimized to identify a broader range of risks to nutrition status in an efficient and objective format that can be applied universally in the OP IBD setting.
