To leverage access to patients across the primary care network, EPIC tools for identifying eligible patients, and the Way to Health platform to launch and enroll a program that will be evaluated in a clinical trial that is focused on changing patient behavior and powered to detect differences in improving blood pressure and cholesterol over 6 months for Penn Medicine patients in West/Southwest Philadelphia and Lancaster.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Penn Med Healthy Heart Program

Patients randomized to the intervention arm will be assigned a Patient Navigator (Clinical Research Coordinators, with support from Nurse Practitioners and a Medical Director) who will conduct an initial assessment with the patient to determine their main barriers to improving blood pressure and cholesterol control. The Patient Navigators will provide the patient with a home blood pressure cuff for remote monitoring, support from Way to Health text message reminders, referrals to established Penn Medicine smoking cessation programs, and referrals to nutrition and social workers as applicable. The Patient Navigators will help move the patients through four modules: Blood Pressure, Food Insecurity/Nutrition Screening, Statins, and Smoking Cessation. These modules provide patients with the chance to work on blood pressure, cholesterol control, access nutrition resources, and smoking cessation simultaneously or sequentially.
