Key Points

To evaluate the effectiveness of a community health worker model in improving access to diabetes technology for individuals with Type 1 Diabetes.
Implemented a randomized controlled trial framework
Involved community health workers in participant education
Assessed social needs alongside diabetes technology navigation
Demonstrated improved access to diabetes technology
Identified positive impacts on managing social needs
Highlighted the potential for scalability in healthcare delivery

Implication

Randomized controlled trial investigates diabetes technology access through community health workers, suggesting a new care model.

Abstract

CATCH-T1D is a specialized CHW model that simultaneously addresses social needs and navigation to diabetes technology, with potential to provide a new scalable model of care.
