Kaiser Permanente Evaluating Nutritional Interventions in Food-Insecure High-Risk Adults Study

Description

The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the effect of receiving 6 months of monetary support for healthy food through a food delivery platform on change in glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels among adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus with glycemic control that is above target level. The main study aims are to: 1. To evaluate whether providing monthly financial support for home-delivered healthy food vs. only free food delivery through the Instacart platform reduces glycosylated hemoglobin levels within 6 months among Medi-Cal-insured Kaiser Permanente adult members with diabetes mellitus and suboptimal glycemic control. 2. To evaluate whether providing monthly financial support for home-delivered healthy food vs. only free food delivery through the Instacart platform reduces medical resource utilization within 6 months among Medi-Cal-insured Kaiser Permanente adult members with diabetes mellitus and suboptimal glycemic control.
