Addressing Disability Effectively With Psychosocial Telemedicine
Sponsor: University of Pennsylvania
Summary
This multi-site study will be implemented at 5 gastroenterology practices to recruit 420 adults with IBD to complete a baseline survey and enroll those with higher scores on a validated IBD-disability scale into a randomized controlled trial of telehealth-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy with a licensed psychologist versus usual care. The investigators aim to lay the foundations that will shift the paradigm of IBD clinical practice towards a new horizon of holistic and equitable high-value care.
