Measure
Usual Care
The patients in this arm will receive normal primary care.
Screen-Educate
Education program to improve blood pressure control among hypertensive non-diabetic persons. The Screen and Educate arm recommends using creatinine, cystatin C and albuminuria for detection and risk stratification, followed by guideline-concordant CKD management appropriate for CKD stage. Screen-Educate: Education program to improve blood pressure control among hypertensive non-diabetic persons. The Screen and Educate arm will recommend using creatinine, cystatin C and albuminuria for screening and risk stratification, followed by guideline-concordant CKD management appropriate for CKD stage. Recommendations are sent to the primary care provider via an electronic note.
Screen-Educate and Intensify Treatment
The Screen-Educate and Intensify Treatment adds a pharmacist-led CKD management program and attempts to improve BP management and patient-centered outcomes among persons with newly stratified higher risk CKD based on creatinine, cystatin c and albuminuria.

Screen-Educate and Intensify Treatment
n=616 Participants
Screen-Educate and Intensify Treatment: This arm adds option of a pharmacist. PCPs randomized to this arm will have the additional option to refer their higher-risk patients to a clinical pharmacist-led CKD management program with education. A primary care clinical pharmacist will schedule a series of appointments with patients found to have confirmed higher-risk CKD (defined as eGFRcreat-cys \<45, or eGFR 45-59 and ACR ≥ 30 mg/g). The pharmacist will follow treatment algorithms recommended by the 2012 KDIGO international CKD guidelines, and designed by a team of internists and nephrologists.
