The document presents a retrospective study analyzing the prevalence and factors influencing the documentation of home blood pressure (BP) in routine clinical care among hypertensive patients with diabetes. It reveals that home BP is rarely documented (only 2.08% of encounters), despite its validity in reflecting patient conditions. The study identifies significant associations between higher office BP, patient income, and age with increased documentation of home BP. It suggests that reimbursement for home BP monitoring could enhance its documentation and utilization in clinical practice.
