Description

In this comparative effectiveness trial, the aim of this study is to answer the research question of whether a remote blood pressure (BP) management program (RBPM, inclusive of home BP monitoring and telehealth visits with a nurse or pharmacist) alone or an RBPM program with community health worker (CHW) support is more effective than standard screening with education and referral to primary care in controlling BP and addressing social determinants that lead to poor health outcomes, and whether either program is more effective than the other. The two models, RBPM alone and RBPM+CHW, are based on the concept that disparities in hypertension control among Black, Latinx, and low-income populations exist because of inequities related to health system factors, as well as socioeconomic and lifestyle factors, the physical/built environment, sociocultural factors, and discriminatory policies. This study will test the hypothesis if a medical model deployed in the community in conjunction with a CHW-driven social model that offers the full continuum of care with attendance to the social determinants of health (SDoH) will be most effective in controlling and sustaining BP control.
