Examining the Impact of Medically Tailored Meals vs Produce Supplements Delivered Conditionally vs Not on Heart Failure


Overview

This study will focus on the impact of providing produce boxes (and/or medically tailored meals) and education on patient diet, medication adherence, patient follow up and heart failure (HF) readmissions among patients recently hospitalized for acute decompensated HF. This study will examine the potential for how produce prescriptions could be used to leverage compliance with health care recommendations, as well as how produce prescriptions could impact a population that typically has a high utilization of health care services.
