Summary

In this study, the investigators will utilize community organizations to screen Hispanics/Latino(a)s for kidney disease, diabetes, and other risk factors, and refer them for care with a PCP. Additionally, the investigators will implement an intervention in local health clinics to assist PCPs with screening and treating patients with diabetes. Completion of the project will hopefully slow progression of kidney disease among Hispanic/Latino(a) patients in Durham, and the information gained will allow the investigators to eventually perform the intervention on a larger scale.

Detailed description

The goals of this study are to (1) Increase rates of screening and monitoring of CKD and CKD risk factors for Hispanic/Latinx community members in Durham by utilizing existing community resources and screening events and (2) Pilot test a PCP-facing intervention to promote guideline concordant testing and evidence-based therapy provision for Hispanics/Latinx with T2D at community health centers, utilizing clinical champions and pharmacists. The investigators anticipate the study will identify patients with CKD or CKD risk factors and establish feasibility of the pilot intervention, which the investigators plan to ultimately apply on a large scale to reduce inequities and improve clinical outcomes among Hispanics/Latinx.
