Summary

In this study, the investigators will compare the effectiveness of patient-driven diabetes Shared Medical Appointments (SMAs) to standardized diabetes SMAs. The curriculum to be used is Targeted Training for Illness Management (TTIM), a 6-session modular group intervention for chronic illness self-management, and has been tested in diabetes. The standardized group visit model will consist of diabetes SMAs with the full TTIM 6-session curriculum, led by a health educator.

Conditions

  • Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Standardized SMA

Patients receiving the Standardized SMA intervention will be part of group visits that cover a modified TTIM 6-session curriculum, delivered only by health educators. The Standardized SMA approach will be uniformly administered at each practice. Topics will be covered in a predetermined order and patients will not have a say in terms of what content they wish to cover. Patients receive the Standardized SMA approach if their practice is randomly assigned to the Standardized SMA arm. Practices are cluster-randomized to deliver a standardized or patient-driven group visit model.

BEHAVIORAL

Patient-driven SMA

Patients receiving the Patient-driven SMA intervention will be part of group visits that cover a modified TTIM 6-session curriculum, but patients are in control of time spent and order of the topics. The Patient-driven SMA will be delivered by a multidisciplinary team consisting of a Health Educator, medical provider, Behavioral Health Professional, and a diabetes peer mentor. Patient-driven SMAs may be delivered differently at each practice, as patients choose the topics that are most important to spend the most time on. All topics will be covered, but the order and time spent is up to the group. Patients receive the Patient-driven SMA approach if their practice is randomly assigned to that arm. Practices are cluster-randomized to deliver a standardized or patient-driven SMA model.
