Conditional Cash Transfer Intervention to Improve T2DM

This study will test the preliminary efficacy of diabetes-tailored CCT (DM-CCT), which will be conditional on participating in biweekly (every two weeks), nurse-led, virtual diabetes education/skills training and stress/coping intervention compared to UCT (with no requirement for participation) on clinical outcomes, self-care behaviors, and psychological health in 100 inner city AAs with poorly controlled T2DM using an RCT design. The aims of the proposed study include: AIM 1: Test the preliminary efficacy of the DM-CCT intervention on glycemic control and quality of life for inner-city AAs with T2DM. AIM 2: Test the preliminary efficacy of the DM-CCT intervention on self-care behaviors and psychological health for inner-city AAs with T2DM. AIM 3: Estimate the cost of delivery of the DM-CCT and UCT interventions in preparation for future cost effectiveness analysis.
