OBJECTIVES/GOALS: We examined how individual characteristics and characteristics of the socioeconomic and built environment were associated with care coordination’s effect on cardiovascular disease (CVD) risks to identify geographic areas that may benefit from supplementary clinic-community linkages. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We analyzed data with geocoded residential addresses and data from electronic health records for 9946 adults from a Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services funded innovation project from 7/1/2013 to 3/30/2015. Variables included patient-level demographics, Elixhauser comorbidity index, total time with a nurse care manager, and neighborhood factors such as poverty indicators, walkability, and social capital index. Outcomes were change in CVD risk factors, hemoglobin A1C, blood pressure (BP), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL). Generalized linear models were used to assess the effect of nurse care management program on outcomes after controlling for confounding factors. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We report preliminary models that include patient demographics (age, sex, race), health care utilization, nurse care manager contact time, Elixhauser comorbidity index, neighborhood education status, percent of population below 200% federal poverty level, median home value, walkability score of the residential address, and social capital index. After adjusting for all mentioned variables, in adults with HbA1C more than 7.5% at baseline, females had worsening HbA1C by 0.53% over the study period. Additionally, LDL values in females worsened over the study period by 4.8 mg/dL after adjusting for all variables. No clinically significant changes were noted for BP. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Women’s HbA1C and LDL worsened despite nurse care management and may benefit from additional community-based interventions or interventionists. In future analyses, we anticipate that CVD risk will worsen for patients with higher fast food proximity and with greater geographic distance from their PCP.

6623 Background: Care management is aimed at improving quality and cost of cancer care. To measure this we evaluated inpatient (IP) and emergency room (ER) admissions and costs of chemotherapy patients receiving versus not receiving telephonic nurse care management. Methods: 1,609 patients were studied over a 35 month period, of which 802 enrolled in a voluntary holistic telephonic nurse care management program. Patients were identified based on having been prescribed or initiating treatment with a high toxicity chemotherapy agent within the previous 60 days, following which notification was received from an oncology pathways intermediary. Nurse care managers engaged patients one or more times per month based on patient need, educating on side effects, pain management, where to seek care, and general well-being. IP and ER were measured during the 14 days following chemotherapy administration (Risk-Period) and compared to a baseline of all remaining patient claims history, excluding 28 days following chemotherapy administration (14 day Risk Period and 14 day washout period). Results: IP rates per 1,000 Risk Period Days for managed patients decreased during the 14 days following chemotherapy by 44% as compared to their baseline (3.02 v 5.39, p≤0.001), while non-managed patients increased by 29% (2.33 v 1.81, p=0.003). ER rates per 1,000 Risk Period Days were not significantly different for managed patients (2.72 v 2.35, p=0.188) and significantly increased by 117% for non-managed patients (2.34 v 1.08, p≤0.001). Baseline utilization for managed patients was more than twice the rate of non-managed patients, suggesting that a greater need for support may influence voluntary participation in care management. Conclusions: Telephonic nurse care management meaningfully reduced IP and ER admissions and their associated costs. [Table: see text]
