What this trial is about
The purpose of the study is to compare 2 primary care based telehealth interventions- 1) digital health coaching and 2) remote patient monitoring for improving glycemic (blood sugar levels) control and overall health outcomes in individuals with physical disabilities, type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and at least one chronic condition. The project aims to determine which intervention is more effective in reducing blood sugar levels, improving patient-reported outcomes such as diabetes-related distress, and facilitating the implementation of these approaches in real-world primary care settings serving vulnerable populations. The findings intend to inform about optimal telehealth strategies for managing multiple chronic conditions in underserved groups, there by supporting improved health equity and quality of care.
