Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The intervention group: Participants receive a total of 18 telephone calls over 12 months. Calls are delivered weekly for the first three weeks, fortnightly until four months, and monthly for the remaining eight months. Using data from participants’ baseline assessment, a detailed intervention workbook is prepared and posted to participants prior to the first telephone call. The workbook contains: tailored feedback graphs, showing participants how their levels of physical activity and dietary intake compare to what is recommended; sections on physical activity and diet; information on goal setting, problem-solving, self-rewards, social support, positive self-talk, relapse, and action plans. New tailored graphs are mailed to participants following each study assessment. Using the workbook during the calls, participants work collaboratively with their telephone counsellor to set goals for physical activity and dietary change. Barriers and supports are identified; confidence is assessed and problem-solving is discussed as necessary. These steps are repeated during intervention contacts, with goals being adjusted as necessary. Participants are counselled to meet (or exceed) the recommendation of 150 minutes a week of accumulated moderate activity on five or more days per week. Walking is emphasized, and stretching and strength exercises are also encouraged, consistent with physical activity guidelines for older adults. Dietary advice given to participants centres around the Australian dietary recommendations – five servings per day of vegetables, two servings per day of fruit, < 30% of energy intake from total fat, < 10% of energy intake from saturated fat, and 30grams per day fibre.
The duration of the intervention is 12 months.

Comparator / control treatment
The Control group: After each assessment, usual care participants are sent a thank you letter that includes very brief feedback on their assessment indicating the areas in which they might like to focus. Included in this mailing are standard, off-the-shelf brochures on a range of health behaviours (including diet, physical activity, smoking, alcohol and sun protection), and a project newsletter that updates them on how many people are participating in the study and gives general health tips.

The control group is asked only 1-item on overall helpfulness and the open-ended item, and the intervention group is asked all items. The open-ended item is only asked at 12-months.

Summary
Brief summary
This 4-year, cluster-randomised trial is evaluating a 12-month, telephone-delivered physical activity and dietary behaviour intervention targeting low-income patients with type 2 diabetes and hypertension, recruited from the primary care setting, and compared to usual care. A systematic evaluation of the incremental costs will be undertaken; and data on program adoption, reach and implementation will be evaluated in order to identify factors relevant to the translation and generalisability of this intervention approach.
