Study Summary

The purpose of this proposal is to compare the effectiveness of community health worker (CHW) support vs. usual primary care for helping chronically-ill, low-SES patients to improve control of chronic conditions. Upon enrollment each patient will select one of their multiple chronic conditions as a focus for the trial and work with his/her PCP to set a chronic disease management goal. Patients are then randomized to receive usual primary care vs. CHW support for moving towards that goal.

Primary Outcome

Six months after enrollment, the IMPaCT arm will have a higher (more negative) mean change in standardized score for chronic disease outcome of interest compared with usual care
