Introducing Way2Health (W2H)!
Way2Health (W2H) is a nationally recognized, widely disseminated, effective diabetes management tool. It is a text-based DM self-management program.
Way2Health engages patients in two ways:
- Patients receive daily Way2Health messages appropriate to their diagnosis and medications (e.g. BP, blood glucose, medication) and appointment reminders throughout the study. They also receive informational and educational texts.
- Patients respond to prompts and contact their providers’ office throughout the study via texting. Patients receive a 15-week customized program of text messages starting after the group visit. Thereafter, they will receive diabetic modules that follow the standard for diabetes education for the rest of the 12 months. Modules differ each month.
