Lowering Food Insecurity and Improving Diabetes With Financial Incentives
Sponsor: State University of New York at Buffalo
Summary
The overarching aim of this proposal is to test the efficacy of financial incentives in improving HbA1c, blood pressure, and quality of life in food insecure adults with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes. Using a clinical trial design, the investigators will randomize food insecure adults with type 2 diabetes to one of three financial incentive structures in combination with monthly mailings that will include diabetes education, healthy recipes, and meal planning resources.
