Pilot randomized controlled trial Protocol: Life context-informed pre-visit planning to improve care plans for primary care patients with multiple chronic conditions including diabetes.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Multimorbidity is common, and care is impacted by patient life context. Effective, efficient interventions to improve patient-centered outcomes such as perceived treatment burden are limited. There is a need for interventions that integrate patient contextual information into primary care encounters to improve such outcomes. Patient life context is a multitude of factors that influence a patient's life and healthcare, including social determinants of health and broader elements such as family and work demands.

Methods

This pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) protocol will compare standard pre-visit planning to context-informed pre-visit planning that incorporates the patient's life context, for patients with diabetes plus other chronic comorbid conditio
