Participants
Alzheimer’s disease, memory loss, dementia, cognitive impairment
Participants were aged 66 years or older on waiting lists at 3 MOW programs in Florida (1 program) and Texas (2 programs). We included participants who had self-reported or proxy-reported dementia during the programs’ intake assessment—a process completed for all individuals who request meals from these 3 MOW programs....

Randomization
The statistician (R.G.) generated a 1:1 stratified, permuted, block randomization scheme, in which each block comprised 6 participants.
PMC10733798
Interventions
Participants randomized to daily-delivered meals were to receive 5 lunchtime meals delivered to their homes, 2 to 5 times per week, by an MOW program volunteer or a paid driver who interacted with the participant and provided an informal wellness check (all employees/volunteers are asked by programs to report any conce...

Measures and Primary Study Outcome
To examine feasibility, we tracked enrollment, examined baseline characteristics between the randomized arms, monitored participants’ fidelity to the intervention, measured the proportion of participants who we were able to link with CMS data, and analyzed the primary study outcome. Participants’ demographics (ie, age,...

Adverse Events

BROWN
Participant deaths, while expected and not related to the intervention, were tracked by the research team. All deaths were reported to the safety officer, the Brown University institutional review board, and the National Institute on Aging program officer for review and oversight.
PMC10733798
Linking Data
Outcome data were obtained by linking enrolled participants with CMS administrative data, which were obtained through a study-specific data use agreement that included the 2021 to 2022 Medicare Master Beneficiary Summary File (MBSF) and the 2021 to 2022 Minimum Data Set.

Sample Size and Power
Given that this was a pilot study, the target sample size was not based on power but rather on available funds to provide meals for 6 months to enrolled participants. Assuming that the proportions of participants who would be admitted to nursing homes in 6 months were 11% in the daily-delivered arm and 13% in the drop-...
