Helmsley Charitable Trust briefSummary: This research study aims to test a financial and health insurance iHERO Toolkit for young adults with type1 diabetes. The iHERO Toolkit was developed over one year with the type 1 diabetes community, The Diabetes Link organization, and experts. Now, the investigators want to understand the impact of the iHERO Toolkit on diabetes self-management, financial stress, and health insurance literacy outcomes. The investigators are doing this study because it will help to better understand how to support health insurance and financial stress and improve self-management outcomes in young adults with type 1 diabetes. The investigators want to understand how the iHERO Toolkit helps all young adults with diabetes, but especially those on Medicaid and who are racially or ethnically diverse. The investigators will ask participants to participate at four-time points over one year. For the first time, participants will fill out online enrollment and demographic forms and 9 surveys. The 9 surveys have 8-40 short questions each, estimated to take about 45 minutes. Participants will also be asked to complete a home A1c collection with a University Hospitals team member on Zoom. conditions: Type 1 Diabetes studyType: INTERVENTIONAL phases: NA allocation: RANDOMIZED interventionModel: PARALLEL primaryPurpose: HEALTH_SERVICES_RESEARCH masking: NONE count: 192 type: ESTIMATED name: iHERO Toolkit Resource measure: Change in financial stress as measured by the Personal Financial Well-Being Scale© (PFW) Scale (PFW) measure: Change in health insurance literacy as measured by The Health Insurance Literacy Measure (HILM) Measure (HILM) measure: Change in diabetes-specific quality of life as measured by The Type 1 Diabetes and Life Young Adult (T1DAL- Young Adult) for ages 18-25 or The Type 1 Diabetes and Life (T1DAL- Adult) for Ages 26-30. measure: Change in transition navigation readiness as measured by the The Readiness for Emerging Adults with Diabetes Diagnosed in Youth (READDY) Navigation Subscale measure: Change in HbA1c levels as measured by self-collect capillary HbA1c sex: ALL minimumAge: 18 Years maximumAge: 30 Years stdAges: ADULT facility: Children's Hospital Los Angeles city: Los Angeles state: California zip: 90027 country: United States name: Jaquelin Flores Garcia, MPH role: CONTACT name: Jennifer Raymond, MD role: PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR lat: 34.05223 lon: -118.24368 facility: University of Florida Diabetes Institute city: Gainesville state: Florida zip: 32610 country: United States name: Michael Haller, MD role: CONTACT name: Michael Haller, MD role: PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR lat: 29.65163 lon: -82.32483 facility: University Hospitals city: Cleveland state: Ohio zip: 44106 country: United States name: Dionne Williams, PhD role: CONTACT phone: 216-238-6100 email: dionne.williams@uhhospitals.org lat: 41.4995 lon: -81.69541 facility: Children's Hospital of Philadelphia city: Philadelphia state: Pennsylvania zip: 19104 country: United States name: Steven Willi, MD role: CONTACT name: Steven Willi, MD role: PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR lat: 39.95233 lon: -75.16379 hasResults: False
