However, these interventions have obtained mixed results. We recently reported the results of a trial assessing the effectiveness of a multifaceted intervention based on a change in care delivery for patients with three or more chronic conditions <a href=\"https:\/\/www.annfammed.org\/content\/19\/2\/126.long\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"[1] (opens in a new tab)\">[1]<\/a>. After four months, the intervention showed a neutral effect on the primary outcomes and substantial improvement in two health behaviors as secondary outcomes. However, the effect of the intervention after a longer period of time was not known. We have now reported the one-year outcomes after exposure to the intervention, combining all participants in one single group that received the intervention, to document its long-term association with measures of self-care, quality of life and health-related behaviors <a href=\"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/26335565211039780?url_ver=Z39.88-2003&amp;rfr_id=ori:rid:crossref.org&amp;rfr_dat=cr_pub%20%200pubmed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"[2] (opens in a new tab)\">[2]<\/a>. Changes in these measures were also analyzed across age-, number of chronic conditions-, income-, and gender-based subgroups to explore factors potentially associated with variation in response to the intervention and help guide the development of more targeted interventions in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We observed that one year after the\nintervention, the domain of emotional wellbeing of the Health Education\nQuestionnaire (heiQ), improved significantly. However, we also observed\ndeterioration in the domain of health services navigation of the heiQ. Improvement\nwas also observed for the measures of the VR-12 (Veteran RAND-12 Health Survey)\nphysical component, VR-12 mental component, in moderate to severe psychological\ndistress measured with the Kessler six item Psychological Stress Scale (K6), and\nhealthy eating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Subgroup analyses in this exploratory study\nsuggest that younger patients, those with lower number of chronic conditions or\nhigher incomes may respond better in relation to self-management, health status\nand health behaviors. This suggests that future interventions should be\ntailored to patients\u2019 characteristics including age, sex, income and number of\nconditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Fortin M, Stewart\nM, Ngangue P, Almirall J, Belanger M, Brown JB, et al.
