On the left of the box is a column labelled Intervention n equals 358 and on the right is a column labelled Control n equals 320. The statistics organized in these columns are labelled as follows from top to bottom. Mean age is 74 in intervention, 71 in control. Female is 80 percent in intervention, 72 percent in control. Some high school or less is 45 percent in intervention, 46 percent in control. Poor health literacy is 84 percent in intervention, 82 percent in control. Lives alone is 91 percent in intervention, 90 percent in control. Moderate to high risk of diabetes is 98 percent in intervention, 96 percent in control.

One arrow branches to the left and down, and the other branches to the right and down. The arrow on the left points to the CP at clinic logo, an icon of apartment buildings, and text that says 15 intervention, 2009 residents. The arrow on the right points to the CP at clinic logo with an X overlaying it, an icon of apartment buildings, and text that says 15 control, 2072 residents. Below all these icons and text is a horizontal line with a vertical branch pointing down from the text that says 15 intervention, and a vertical branch pointing down from the text that says 15 control. Below the branch from 15 intervention there is a bubble that says 19.4 percent reduction in EMS calls and text that says 3.73 calls per 100 units per month. Below the branch from 15 control is text that says 4.64 calls per 100 units per month. Between the two branches is an icon of an ambulance with text that says 911 calls and text that says p equals 0.006. Below the text that says 3.73 calls per 100 units per month is text that says 0.05 QALY and an icon of an arrow pointing up. Below the text that says 4.64 calls per 100 units per month is text that says 0.01 QALY and an icon of a smaller arrow pointing up.
