Black patients suffer disproportionate hypertension (HTN) burden with worse control, resulting in HTN-related mortality rates twice those observed in non-Hispanic White patients. Contextually informed care approach is urgently needed in Black patients for HTN management. This study will evaluate multi-level barriers and facilitators for recruitment and participation of Black patients in a Team Based Equity Conscious Telemedicine Approach to Improve Hypertension (TET-HTN) clinical trial. This study will also evaluate the feasibility of TET-HTN intervention in a randomized comparison with usual clinic-based hypertension care approach.
