Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Pilot feasibility	patients reached by phone for PVP call after assigned to call; # patients recruited successfully who were eligible; # questions completed on the surveys; # calls made to each patient and to patients total per # patients reached and # patients enrolled; # patients who completed all surveys; qualitative interviews will discuss challenges, barriers, and other feasability concerns to scaling this pilot trial to a definitive multi-center trial	at completion of study, 4 months after last study visit
Primary	Pilot acceptability)	a short survey measuring PCPs perception of the visit's difficulty, hassle and effort; qualittive interviews with patients, providers and those conducting the intervention PVP calls	after each clinic visit, within 2 weeks; at end of study
Secondary	Treatment Burden of Diabetes Care Questionnaire (TBQ)	a validated survey that measures patient self-assessment of chronic disease care burden; 13 items on a 5 point Likert scale, 13-65, higher score is worse	change from baseline to 4 months post visit
Secondary	Patient Experience with Treatment and Self-Management (PETS) Questionnaire Medical Expenses Subsection	a validated survey that measures patient's self-assessed ability to handle financial aspects of chronic disease care; 5 items on a 5 point Likert scale, 5-25, higher score is worse	change from baseline to 4 months post visit
Secondary	Healthcare Climate Questionnaire (HCQ)	a validated survey of patient experience with their healthcare; 6 items on a 7 point Likert scale, 6-42, higher score is better	change from baseline to 4 months post visit
Secondary	Patient Self-Activation Measure (PAM-13) short form	a validated measure of patient participation in their own healthcare; 13 items on a 4 point Likert scale, 13-52, higher score is better	change from baseline to 4 months post visit
Secondary	Perceived Diabetes Self-Management Scale	a validated survey on the patients perception of their ability to care for their diabetes; 8 items on a 5 point Likert scale, 8-40 higher score is worse	change from baseline to 4 months post visit
Secondary	SF-12, Short Form 12 questions Health Survey	a validated 12 question survey on patient's physical and mental health	change from baseline to 4 months post visit
Secondary	Discussion of social determinants of health (SDH) during clinic visit, self-reported	a single question survey, self-reporting by the participant, if SDH were discussed between the doctor and the patient during the visit	after each clinic visit, within 2 weeks
Secondary	HgbA1c value	change in A1c level from baseline to post-study, using values nearest to study start and end dates	change from baseline to 4 months post visit
Secondary	Blood pressure measurement	systolic and diastolic blood pressure value pre and psot study, using measures closest to study start and end date, and area-under-the-curve for blood pressure in between.	change from baseline to 4 months post visit
Secondary	Body Mass Index	Body Mass Index change from beginning of study to the end of the study, using most recent height available	change from baseline to 4 months post visit
Secondary	Physician Job Satisfaction Scale	validated survey on elements of physician job satisfaction	change from baseline to 4 months post visit
