Can a High-Tech care model help millions with diabetes?
NCT ID NCT06251323
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This large study tests a new way of managing type 2 diabetes in community health centers. The approach uses a team of providers and technology to personalize care. Researchers will compare blood sugar control in clinics that start the program at different times. The goal is to see if this model can reduce the number of patients with dangerously high blood sugar levels.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- iPATH implementation approach (team-based, technology-enabled care model)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could provide a scalable way for community health centers to better manage type 2 diabetes and reduce the number of patients with poorly controlled blood sugar.
- What could go wrong
- This is an implementation study, not a drug trial, so it tests a care model rather than a new treatment. Results may vary across clinics and may not apply to all settings.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * Two largest clinic sites in multi-clinic FQHCs operating in or near Massachusetts, Ohio, California, Puerto Rico * We will prioritize FQHCs performing in the lower half of the distribution for A1c control, as these FQHCs have greater room for improvement. Exclusion Criteria: * FQHCs that have a patient population comprised of more than 80% children * FQHCs that have a patient population multiplied by the FQHC's diabetes prevalence in the lowest 10% of all the clinics * FQHCs that have fewer than 5,000 or more than 50,000 patients.
