Summary

This trial will test whether a multicomponent intervention targeting providers and leveraging health information technology can reduce health disparities in racial and ethnic minorities.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-85 with uncontrolled high blood pressure, who have seen their primary care physician at least once in the past two years and have a hypertension diagnosis recorded. It's focused on patients using the EPIC EHR system.
What is being tested?
The REDUCE-BP Intervention aims to help doctors manage high blood pressure better using enhanced tools within the electronic health record (EHR) system. This includes new dashboards, decision support, and improved patient communication methods.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this intervention involves non-medical changes to how doctors use EHR systems, there are no direct medical side effects associated with it. However, any change in treatment resulting from improved management may carry its own risks.
