Study Summary

The investigators will complete a pragmatic randomized trial (N=260 randomized participants) of the 26-week blended collaborative care (CC) intervention compared to enhanced usual care (eUC) in patients admitted for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or heart failure (HF) found to have current depression, generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), or panic disorder (PD). The CC intervention will use a novel three-pronged approach to these high-risk patients. Care managers will provide centralized care coordination and specific interventions targeting: (1) the psychiatric disorders, (2) cardiac health behaviors, and (3) the cardiac illness. The primary study outcome will be physical function at 26 weeks, measured by the Duke Activity Status Index (DASI), given links between function and new cardiac events. The investigators will also examine effects on numerous other outcomes important to patients and healthcare systems. Specific Aim 1 \[patient-centered outcomes-primary aim\]: To compare between-group differences in the CC and eUC conditions on improvements in physical function, health-related quality of life, mental health, patient satisfaction, and other key patient-reported outcomes at 26 and 52 weeks. Specific Aim 2 \[adherence and medical outcomes\]: To compare between-group differences on health behaviors (physical activity, diet, smoking, medication adherence) and major adverse cardiac events. Specific Aim 3 \[cost\]: To compare healthcare costs between groups and assess the cost-effectiveness of CC. Hypotheses: The investigators expect this bolstered CC program to be associated with superior improvements in physical function, health-related quality of life, patient satisfaction, and adherence at 26 weeks, with promising effects on major adverse cardiac events. The investigators likewise expect the intervention to be cost-effective (\<$10,000/quality-adjusted life year) over the study period.

Primary Outcome

Physical function will be assessed with the Duke Activity Status Index (DASI).
