Summary

This study looks at whether helping people with inflammatory arthritis address social needs—like food, housing, or transportation—can reduce missed doctor visits. About 100 adults with conditions like rheumatoid arthritis or lupus who have missed appointments in the past year will be randomly assigned to receive a list of community resources, help from a community specialist, or a nurse navigator. The goal is to find the simplest, most cost-effective way to improve appointment attendance and health equity.

Participants

The number who actually took part.

Started

Mar 2023

Expected to finish

Dec 2026

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Ages

18 to 100 years

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.
