Detaljeret beskrivelse
The objective of this study is to determine the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of two interventions aimed at reducing barriers to blood pressure (BP) control in an indigent and African-American population. Specifically, we will conduct a randomized controlled trial comparing BP control using either: (1) reimbursing patients for filling prescriptions (reimbursement arm); (2) a computer-based behavioral intervention (behavioral arm); (3) both the reimbursement and behavioral arms (combined arms); or (4) neither.
The ultimate goal of this study is to reduce the incidence of HTN-related CVD among these populations thereby reducing cardiovascular health disparities. Specific aims of the study are to:
test whether receiving money each time the patient fills a prescription for medications improves BP control by a clinically significant amount.
H1: Reimbursing patients for filling prescriptions will significantly improve BP control.
test whether a computer-based behavioral intervention improves BP control by a clinically significant amount.
H2: A computer-based behavioral intervention will significantly improve BP control.
test whether the two interventions are more effective in improving BP control than either alone.
H3: The effect of improving BP control of administering both interventions together will be greater than the sum of the individual effects of each intervention alone.
- examine the relative cost effectiveness of reimbursement for filling prescriptions, a computer-based behavioral intervention, and the combination of the two.
H4: Both interventions will be cost-effective relative to other commonly-covered services.
