What this trial is about
In the United States, the burden of chronic kidney disease (CKD) rests disproportionately on rural communities. This study evaluates the implementation and effectiveness of CommunityRx-Kidney Health (CRx-K); this health information technology intervention integrates medical, social, and self-care resources to improve CKD management in rural eastern North Carolina. Through a partnership among local primary care centers, community organizations, and researchers, CRx-K will strengthen rural care networks, improve CKD management, and enhance the well-being of rural communities.
