Bridging the Evidence-to-practice Gap

The study will involve each site starting with the usual care phase, followed by a period of 6 months during which practice facilitators will conduct the pre-implementation evaluation (e.g., workflow analysis, environmental scan), refine the practice facilitation strategies that will be used in the implementation phase, and train staff in the Advancing Medication Adherence for Latinos with Hypertension through a Team-based Care Approach (ALTA) intervention model. ALTA is an efficacious systems-level intervention designed to help patients improve their ability to take their high blood pressure medications and control their blood pressure. Practices and the Project ALTA team will work together to implement the ALTA model into routine care to improve blood pressure control and medication adherence in Latinx patients.
