Summary

This study evaluates a mobile phone-delivered intervention, called REACH (Rapid Education/Encouragement And Communications for Health), in supporting adults with type 2 diabetes in their self-management relative to a control group. The goal of this study is to determine if individually tailored content (based on the Information-Motivation-Behavioral Skills Model) delivered to the participant via text messages can improve the participant's glycemic control and adherence to diabetes medications. We will test whether our intervention improves adherence-related information, motivation, and behavioral skills and whether improving these mechanisms drives improvements in adherence and, in turn, glycemic control.

Conditions

  • Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

REACH

The intervention consists of daily text messaging tailored to user's individual barriers to medication adherence, text messages assessing user's adherence with feedback on progress, plus text messaging targeting other self-care behaviors.

BEHAVIORAL

Helpline and A1c results

Participants complete study assessments, receive text messages advising how to access study A1c results, receive quarterly newsletters on healthy living with diabetes, and have access to a helpline for study- or diabetes medication-related questions.

BEHAVIORAL

REACH + FAMS

The intervention consists of REACH individually-focused text messaging, plus family-focused phone coaching session, goal-focused text messaging, and the option to invite a family member/support person to receive text messaging.
