The CDM Program and Safety Net Program have also collaborated to integrate microfinance groups and group medical visits, and have demonstrated the feasibility of this integrated approach. One-year results of this preliminary work (BIGPIC Pilot) are now available and appear promising. Six integrated groups were newly formed comprising 160 members, of whom 90 (over 50%) were patients with diabetes and hypertension. More women attended the initial screening (72%), and were therefore over-represented. After invitation to create integrated group medical visit- microfinance groups, women were slightly more likely to participate than men (83% vs. 74%).
