A Randomized Incentive-Based Diabetes Self-Management Study (Hawaii Patient Reward And Incentives to Support Empowerment Project)
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Financial Incentives for Diabetes Mellitus. Completed, enrolled 320 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this randomized controlled trial (RCT) study is to examine the extent that financial incentives when combined with diabetes evidence-based practices, improve self-management and biometric measures for adult diabetic Medicaid recipients with an HbA1c of ≥ 6.5 at enrollment. The study will also evaluate the cost-effectiveness of the program. Specific Aims: 1. Evaluate whether financial incentives for completing American Diabetes Association (ADA) recommended tests, exams, health education, biometric outcome goals, and vaccinations will improve primary biometric outcomes. 2. Evaluate whether financial incentives for completing ADA recommended tests, exams, health education, biometric outcome goals, and vaccinations will improve diabetes patients' self-management as assessed by Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities Measure (SDSCA) and 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF36v2). 3. Evaluate the extent to which financial incentives for healthy behaviors reduce the cost of health care utilization.
