Hospitalizations

The goal of this study is to evaluate the biomedical effects of these RPM interventions, and to gain insights into barriers and facilitators to implementation and adoption of the programs. Our results will inform efforts to ensure that patients in community health centers can benefit from digital RPM interventions and will lay the foundation for large-scale implementation of such interventions. 

This project will assess the effect of providing an enhanced digital texting intervention-Dulce Digital-COVID Aware (DD-CA) to Hispanic patients with type 2 diabetes upon discharge from recent hospitalization. Key outcomes will assess the impact of DD-CA on hospital readmissions at 30 and 90 days post-discharge, glucose control, and patient reported outcomes at 90 days post-discharge, while also assessing COVID status.
