Abstract
Homeless people with chronic disorders need routine follow up to control chronic diseases and prevent exacerbations. Returning to the clinic for appointments or other interdisciplinary collaboration without a reminder is challenging. An intervention that involves automatic text message reminders could increase the return to the clinic for follow-ups, minimize ‘no shows’, and improve the overall health of homeless people with chronic diseases.
