CKD Awareness, Referrals, Education, and Support (CARES)
We will target diabetic patients eligible for an early-stage CKD diagnosis with a nurse-delivered, pre-PCP-visit 1:1 virtual session including 1) tailored, evidence-based CKD education 2) motivational interviewing with self-management goal setting, and 3) social determinants of health screening with referrals to services as needed.
Attention control
The control group will receive an attention control session of general education about diabetes-related health behaviors (e.g., diet and physical activity) that does not refer to CKD, based on American Diabetes Association materials.
