Study Summary
Medical care has improved greatly over the past 50 years. Treatments for most medical conditions can help us lead longer and healthier lives, but there are still problems. Many patients with two or more conditions see many different doctors and sometimes take more medications than needed. These patients can feel lost and confused. In addition, non-medical issues involving housing, food, transportation, employment, income, support from others, and language barriers can have a large impact on our health. In Minnesota, many primary care clinics are using a method called care coordination to improve the health of patients who have a number of chronic diseases (some examples of chronic diseases include diabetes, heart disease, asthma and depression). With care coordination, a nurse in the clinic helps the various doctors, clinics, and specialists to work together, in the interest of the patient. In some clinics, a social worker also helps with care coordination. These social workers help with issues like housing, transportation, or employment. Care coordination can help reduce patient confusion. It also can improve health and lower patient burdens and costs of getting medical care. To help find out what types of care coordination are most successful, we are proposing a study. Our plan is to track the health of patients receiving care coordination and compare two types: A. Care coordination done by a nurse or other clinic staff B. Care coordination where a licensed social worker also assists the patient In this study, we will measure many things, including: 1. Control of chronic conditions like diabetes, heart disease, asthma, and depression 2. Hospitalizations 3. Emergency department visits 4. Use of medications and diagnostic tests 5. Use of specialty care 6. General health status 7. Patient satisfaction and access to care 8. Use of shared decision-making (where the doctor and the patient make treatment decisions together) 9. Patient burden (how much time and effor
