Official title
Practical Telemedicine to Improve Control and Engagement for Veterans With Clinic-Refractory Diabetes Mellitus (PRACTICE-DM)
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Diabetes generates significant morbidity, mortality, and costs within the Veterans Health Administration (VHA). Veterans with persistently poor diabetes control despite clinic-based care are among the highest-risk diabetes patients in VHA, and contribute disproportionately to VHA's massive burden of diabetes complications and costs. VHA critically needs effective, practical management alternatives for Veterans whose diabetes does not respond to clinic-based management. The proposed study will address this need by leveraging VHA's unique Home Telehealth capacity to deliver comprehensive telemedicine-based management for Veterans with persistently poor diabetes control despite clinic-based care. Because this intensive intervention is delivered using only existing Home Telehealth workforce, infrastructure, and technical resources - which are ubiquitous at VHA centers nationwide - it could represent an effective, practical approach to improving outcomes in Veterans with PPDM, potentially translating to a substantial reduction in VHA's diabetes burden.
