This study is a prospective, randomized control, pragmatic trial of patients with diabetes, including patients newly diagnosed with diabetes and patients with uncontrolled diabetes. This study focuses on delivering educational materials through the MyChart Care Companion pathway to conduct timely educations and assess patient medication adherence level and activity level. This is a minimal risk study without intervention procedures.
There are two Type 2 Diabetes subjects groups uncontrolled diabetes and new diabetics. Each group will be randomized 1 to 1 to either the Care Companion program or control group which receives a one-page document on diabetic care. The Care Companion program is a digital interactive weekly program that includes modules on health and nutrition education and weekly activity and medication adherence check-ins. There are weekly modules that are completed over 16 weeks.
The objective is to provide timely education to patients with type 2 diabetes through MyChart Care Companion pathway, with the aim of improving patient's self management knowledge. We will also evaluate patient experience and acceptance of the MyChart Care Companion features.
