OSF Healthcare System
Summary
The purpose of this study is to examine the intervention effectiveness and dissemination of digital health care delivery models for improving selected health outcomes in the Medicaid population.
Description
The investigators will conduct a mixed method study that includes a controlled interrupted times series (CITS) design to study hypertension (HTN) and diabetes, a cohort to study pregnancy, and longitudinal patient and provider interviews to study experiences. This approach is appropriate when randomization is not desirable or feasible and is frequently utilized for evaluation of public health interventions (Lopez Bernal et al., 2018; Hategeka et al., 2020).
