Summary

This study tests a health coaching program called STAR-MAP to help older adults (age 40+) with high blood pressure take their medication regularly. About 402 participants with uncontrolled blood pressure and low medication adherence will be recruited through a Louisiana health insurer. They will be randomly assigned to receive either health coaching sessions plus reminder tools, or reminder tools alone, and will be followed for two years to see if the coaching improves medication taking, blood pressure control, and quality of life.
