T2D Pilot Study for Patients With Uncontrolled Type 2 Diabetes

The T2D PHP program is 8 hour-long sessions offered over 16 weeks. The program includes development of a personal health plan supported by a patient-provider health risk assessment; group session structure supplemented by educational, video sessions; lessons, discussions, and activities based on behavioral modification, health engagement, and diabetes distress; goal progress tracking; social support; mindful awareness practices and qualitative health evaluations via surveys and a one-on-one consultation with a personal health coach. Participants will be provided a group participant notebook that provides information discussed during the program. The T2D PHP program is a complement to routine care.

Patients will be encouraged to see their diabetes provider. Patients will not participate in the T2D PHP program but will complete laboratory tests and surveys as listed in the section on outcomes.
